The poets' perspective on everything being terrible - a delight! I adore artists and how they find and create beauty to lift us up when things are so hard.

Just a quick share: last week I mentioned that I'd had my first therapy appointment in years and felt somewhat hopeful for the first time in months. The next day, I was running errands in the breezy 2 degree temps here in MN, but you guys, I was SO HAPPY. Everything seemed sunshiny, and I loved every man, woman, and child I encountered that morning, and it felt like the world had shifted on its axis to show me the glorious side of life again. So, so, so grateful for a bright morning after such a long time in the darkness. Committed to the work to keep going in this direction, even though I know I'll slide back sometimes. Big hugs and wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Good morning! It’s been 73 degrees and storming in Alabama for the past 3 days and it has wrecked my sleep and mood, but I still have to attend a budget meeting this afternoon 😭 why can’t I go live in a Forest with the little bunnies and toads and mushrooms?

Anyway.... here is a choir creating a magical thunderstorm: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2VKxArrYSY/?igsh=ZWI2YzEzYmMxYg==

Be kind to yourself this weekend 💗
