This past week included writing about [touch] as communication, a reminder that The Work will be ready, [noticing] what speaks to my heart and a significant mile marker for me as 🌈I continue to explore [the synchronicity] of this calendar year, holding space my emotions as 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜 colors — rainbows of my inner sky — and ⚡️[noticing] 🌈🌐 what might come from my imaginary world.
Keep only those things that speak to your heart. Then take the plunge and discard all the rest. By doing this, you can reset your life and embark on a new lifestyle.

I’m becoming more open to the possibility that the journey ahead can still unfold in beautiful, healing ways that I have yet to imagine.

What does all of this have to do with planning?
Chronicling the details of our days is a way of understanding ourselves + mapping our desires. Tracking (and reviewing) our thoughts and routine activities reveals our beliefs and values — and helps us to discover our pace and rhythms.
Showing up for ourselves on the page along with setting aside time and space on a regular basis for both tangible and intangible processing is how we come to identify our desires + get clarity.
- Everything is an opportunity. Everything we have lived and loved, questioned and lost is a part of who we are.
And, Braveheart, there is enough time and space and energy for our dreams and desires, wishes and want-to’s (even when we doubt that enoughness).
Our dreams take time. Without some type of visual chronicle to serve as a “map” — as well as a reminder and directive — the timelines of our desires and experiences become jumbled. What matters most becomes forgotten and ignored.
Everything cycles, Braveheart.
The box is the raw index of your preparation. It is the repository of your creative potential, but it is not that potential realized.

We are always giving birth [life] to future versions of ourselves, even as we are also all the ages we have ever been. This is our fullness, Braveheart. ♥
There are certain details and decisions within each day that either energize and propel us to live more of what matters most to us — or cause us to wander in ways that lead to self-loathing and exhaustion. It is up to us to choose wisely and compassionately, Braveheart.
Thank you kindly for your presence here, Braveheart.
I appreciate your interest and support.
~love & good wishes~
