"Unlikely adventures require unlikely tools." -Mr. Magorium
Braveheart, loss and hardships either make us bitter … or better. Better equipped, more clear about what truly matters in life, more open, more determined, more committed to the people we love, more forgiving … more grateful.
I am currently feeling more grateful due to the kind and loving support I have received during my ongoing health challenges. 🙏
This is my “thank you” to you. Because you are special to me. Thank you for being here.

“You make time for what you want. If you are not prioritizing the things you say you care about, consider the possibility that you don’t actually care about those things.” -Elle Luna

❤️ Braveheart, let’s please remember that everything counts (breath-by-breath envisioning, wishing and hoping; teeny tiny steps). K? Because 🎢 we can always (always) trust our pace.

Braveheart, I encourage you to allow today to be Day One. And, remember, any day can be Day One. Begin (or resume) whenever you are ready …
Right Brain Planner is a collection of lunar + seasonal prompts and journal-planning ideas to encourage self-compassion and review, reflection and expression, discovery and healing.
Braveheart, we learn by doing: we discover details about ourselves through dated, chronicled observations 👀✍️📔 because everything we experience is data. 📊
Data is value-neutral; it is neither “good’ or “bad”—it is merely information to use for our choices, intentions and conclusions. Remembering this helps us to live free from judgment and shoulds.
Thank you kindly for your presence here.
I appreciate your interest and support.
~love & good wishes~
