Hello friends, and welcome to the most secret... most magical place... on the entire internet. You are welcome here... to sit and listen to a little whisper of the infinite possibilities that live within YOUR HEART at all times. Who you are matters, and you have so much to bring to the world -- never forget that!
You were born on this planet
Only one of you exists
You matter so much
You have so many gifts
Not one person alive
Sees the universe like you
There's not much I know
But this much is true
Who you are is important
Your dreams are not silly
So keep walking that path
Even when it gets hilly
Each up and each down
A lesson you learn
A new opportunity exists
Around every single turn
Don't let go of ideas
They are meant to stay alive
As you nurture them with love
They start to thrive
And what starts as a glimmer
Will burn as a spark
And the light in your soul
Will brighten the dark
The more glimmers that rise
The more light we will see
The more people will bring
Their unique creativity
A ripple in a pond
It starts very small
But soon all that joy
Is shared with the all
It only takes a single
Person who decides to decide
That they won't live small anymore
That they weren't meant to hide
And as that blossoming happens
A flower so rare
The beauty, unimaginable
Extending infinite care
To all who are part
Of this cosmic river above
And we keep flowing on
Powered by that infinite love.

Thankful for cotton-candy sunrises and technicolor sunsets and the ability to be caught breathless by their beauty.
P.S. Your mom is lovely…she stopped by the shop this week :)

for you and I

walking each other home!!!!
I am grateful for the life I have built for myself and for the continued possibilities ahead.
I’m grateful for being able to live this amazing, beautiful life! I’m mom to a 4 legged senior puppy – Gracie, and wife of 35 years to my incredible husband Joe, who is fighting cancer. I’ve already been treated for the dreaded C and the experience does make you value living more and more each day. While I enjoy being outdoors and hiking, my travels have been restricted because of my 2 roomies. I’ll get back out there though! Hopefully, sooner rather than later. Stop, smell the roses, tomorrow isn’t a given.
I am so grateful to wake up every morning and feel a connection to the Earth. Our landscapes and plant friends have so much to offer, and it’s so important to make space and time to appreciate the beauties around us while also focusing on giving back.
“Climb the mountains and get their good tidings.
Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.”
