Keep appreciating

It is an exquisite feeling to notice the good in bad,  the learning through challenges,  the growth despite anything.

To feel my own growth causes me such amazing pleasure at my journey so far,  and much excitement for what is to come.

It is a luxury to observe from without.

Things move better when nudged,  not forced.

Give an idea--inspiration--this will settle and grow.

With less pressure, more freedom.  More room to grow.  More responsibility.

For we do what we feel is expected of us.

Failure is inevitable.  Picking ourselves up with grace and continuing on is our choice.


So,  expect better,  and support growth.

RESIST.

Keep going. 

We are all inspired by each other. 

We are able when we are not alone. 

We are inconquerable.

Keep going. 

You matter. 

And our country's failures are not our own fault.  But they are our responsibility.

Growth

Moving foward.
Changing
Growing
Pushing.

Can be so utterly horrifying.

What if I make a mistake?
Embarrass myself?
Fail?


Is it a greater failure to choose wrongly?
Or to sit idly by?


Alright, universe, I'm ready for you.

Thoughts

I realize how lucky I am. For everything.

My amazing husband.
Our awesome wolf.
The kitties of snuggles and cries.

Everything.

In those moments, I am stricken with the profound feeling of "someone else deserves this more."

And yet, I am here. I was gifted these blessings.

I must make the best of myself.

Imbolc blessings

As it is Imbolc, the holiday of growing light, I wish light upon the world.

Light, to reveal the devils hiding in business suits and behind titles.

Light, to be a beacon of hope for those who feel alone and hopeless.

Let this year be a time where we change what we need to change, fix what needs fixing, and love EVERYTHING.

Love doesn't mean ignore things that are wrong, but, rather, to make them right.
