“It takes enormous strength to carry our burdens. But we cannot underestimate the strength it takes to admit when they have become too heavy. Surrender is not weakness. It's knowing when enough is enough. It's feeling and honouring what you have and have not been called to bear. Show yourself the same grace that in a fraction of a heartbeat, you would extend to someone else. The last thing we need is a world full of people who are barely hanging on. Find some shelter and stay for as long as your soul requires it. This journey was not meant to be taken without setting your bags down and stopping to rest for awhile.”

“May you never look at a photograph of yourself and think: ‘look at how beautiful I used to be.’ May you only see the living breathing soul that is still alive within you today and how you are not worth any less because your appearance has changed. The woman in the photograph holds so much more than a frame in time could ever capture. And even though you know her so well, and you have occupied that very space, there is still an endless depth to her, going far beyond what is seen. And with age, you are only being refined, growing more and more beautiful with time. What you see in that photograph is one part of a greater story. Your beauty goes beyond what any photograph can hold. And every year, you still shine, radiant, like gold.”

"Sometimes 
The easiest way
To find out 
Who you are
Is to be around those
Where you don't 
Have to be 
Anything at all.
Except you. 
As you are.
Here. Now.”

“When the world
Goes mad 
Be wildly kind to 
Everyone 
Everyone 
Everyone
~ you can't control 
Much
But you control how 
You treat others 
In these breaking news 
Heartbreaking times 
When nothing feels 
Certain
Let your raw kindness 
Be a certainty 
Allow your compassion 
To become a North Star 
Stamped up 
In the sky 
For others to follow 
Back home.”

“The most important day of your life is not the day you get married. Or the day you graduate from college or the day you land your first real job. No. The most important day of your life is the day you realize your self-worth. The day you realize that you are enough. But not only for the world but also, for yourself. The day you realize that the love you have for yourself... is the strongest kind of love there is. The one that starts with you. The one you share with other people. The one you've always had within. That is the most important day of your life. Realizing your self-love. And knowing how irreplaceable you truly are.”

"Continually swimming in 
An endless sea of sensation 
Can at times be exhausting, 
Regardless if it’s beautifully terrible 
Or terribly beautiful, and
This is why your deep-rooted 
Need for peace and self care 
Is essential to support 
Your superb sensitivity."

"People who really want to make a difference in the world usually do it, in one way or another. And I've noticed something about people who make a difference in the world: They hold the unshakable conviction that individuals are extremely important, that every life matters. They get excited over one smile. They are willing to feed one stomach, educate one mind, and treat one wound. They aren't determined to revolutionize the world all at once; they're satisfied with small changes. Over time, though, the small changes add up. Sometimes they even transform cities and nations, and yes, the world.”

“Please hold onto your hope. 
It is in such limited supply 
Around the world these days.
Hold onto it and be proud 
That you are one 
Of the ones that does.”

“You may believe that living life to the fullest is seeing every country in the world and quitting your job on a whim and falling recklessly in love, but it's really just knowing how to be where your feet are. It's learning how to take care of yourself, how to make a home within your own skin. It's learning how to build a simple life you are proud of. A life most fully lived is not always composed of the things that rock you awake, but those that slowly assure you it's okay to slow down. That you don't always have to prove yourself. That you don't need to fight forever, or constantly want more. That it's okay for things to be just as they are.
And when those big moments come, which they will, you'll feel them in a way you couldn't before. You'll experience them in a way you didn't before. You'll appreciate them because you'll be able to fully be in them. Little by little, you will begin to see that life can only grow outward in proportion to how stable it is inward - that if the joy is not in the little things first, the big things don't fully find us.”

Hello and good morning to you all. Having recently returned from my time away, I now look forward to catching up and seeing how you all are and what you’ve been doing. Wishing everyone joy in the little things as we soften into the season of mellow fruitfulness.

“There is always much to be grateful for in life. Like the moment you witness another sunrise that promises a new beginning and the sunset that promises an end to even the gloomiest of days. It is the moment the moon unravels itself from the clouds to paint hope even on the darkest of nights, and the moment a rainbow colours the sky to show you that even storms have beautiful endings. When your mind wanders back to all that you have lost - remind yourself of what stayed and what you gained - and remind your being that even knowledge presented in the form of lessons is a gain. When it gets difficult to hold on to gratefulness, remind yourself that even the ability to breathe in fresh air in this moment is a blessing, to live, to feel is all a blessing that is ever so easily overlooked.”

This will be my only September post as I’ll soon be taking a little time off to breathe in the fresh air and then shall resume at the beginning of October. 
Sending my love to you all as we head towards the richness of Autumn 🍂🍁 but first, enjoy this unexpected Indian summer ☀️

“The best version of yourself is actually the version of you who is completely happy with what they have. It is the version of you that wears the clothes in your closet and cooks the food they bought. It is the version of you who appreciates where they are while still remaining steadfast in building more. It is the version of you who can sit back and savour a moment, the version who can dance to the music while it plays. It is the version that is grateful for the work they have, and does it diligently, and with principle. It is the version of you who is no longer stretching constantly for something just out of reach. It is the version of you who is no longer looking to the future, because it is the version of you who knows how to make the best of what you have right now.”

"I love being around children. Because children crave stories and movement and adventure. They remain curious and ask questions. They want art and dirt and laughter and mess and love. They see the world in the colours that many of us often forget, and so innately know how to thrive. If you can choose anything as a propeller, or the very seed to grow your own wings - let it be wonder.”
