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.

Growing up I felt like I never fit in.
As an adult it happened again and again.
Since I’ve grown older I’ve learned a ton.
I’m even learning to love me some.
I want to live in a world of love and peace.
A world that can calm a raging beast.
I want to live in a world where compassion is taught.
Where the things that matter can not be bought.
Maybe my perfect place will have a horse with a violin
or perhaps a gorilla sporting a grin.
It will be a place with woods and streams.
It will be far beyond my wildest dreams.
I am so thankful for dear friends to adventure with, this morning I did my second 5:30 am cold plunge in the Hood Canal with friends. This is something I would not have started without the support of the adventurous women around me.
I am grateful for this scavenger hunt as it brought me joy and healing this morning after waking up with a migraine. This community is pure magic! Thank you all for sharing your love and kind words. Sending love back and I hope you all have a beautiful weekend!
I am so grateful to be alive. To have eyes to witness things like the sun hitting the clouds and the colors in the sky, ever changing. I’ve been singing You are my Sunshine to my daughter since before she was born, now much softer so she doesn’t get mad (13 year olds, eh?). But I’m grateful to watch her grow and see who she is at each step. Nothing will ever be perfect but that imperfection is what makes things interesting and gives us opportunities to flex our individual power, grow and learn. I hope everyone takes time to watch something slow today. A flower opening, a smile line growing, an idea working its out like a new butterfly from a cocoon.
I have been going through a hard time right now (My mom is currently fighting terminal cancer so we can have more time with her) and getting into the wild is a balm for my heart. I am so so grateful for the ability and time to do so.
