I’m PROUD of YOU! Yes...YOU!

You know what I’m proud of? I’m proud that through every disappointment, every frustration, every roadblock, every lesson, you have SHOWN UP! Not only have you shown up, you continue to SHOW UP. You have been hurt, you’ve been frustrated, you’ve been humiliated and yet here you are. You are still standing. You are still participating. You are still here. And that says something. You are a warrior.  Most equate bravery with some sort of overt heroism— running into a burning building, or standing up against tyranny or something. While YES, those actions are a type of bravery, the truest form of bravery, the truest way to be BRAVE is to show up and BE YOURSELF. Be your authentic, messy, hurt, imperfect self. You want honest to goodness down home bravery? Be unapologetically you. Now THAT’S bravery.  Bravado is one thing. Being the physically strongest or the physically loudest in the room was once and still is equated with being powerful. But that is all noise. It is all perfor

So THIS happened...Meditation thoughts pt.1

Meditation- I have never once considered myself to be a person for whom meditation would “work.” My reasonings were simple: -My brain is too active. -I cannot sit still.  -I get bored. These are just a few of the reasonings I gave. Heck. I had tried it a handful of times over the past 20 years so I figured I knew it what I was talking about. It simply wasn’t for me.

But yeah. No. :( Couple that with the fact that the one time I successfully meditated was probably 15-20 years ago and I opened myself up to some sort of spirit attack— (I am not making this up, believe me. It was TERRIFYING and I didn’t even know it was possible!!), I have always had this complicated relationship with meditation. Fast forward to spring/summer 2019. Life has been going really quite well. I am content and b

Not All Heroes Wear Capes

Not all heroes wear capes. Some offer well timed, much needed words of kindness. Some make calm small talk with you in the Target checkout line when you clearly need some encouragement. ^^all while offering your screaming toddler a judgement free sticker in the same exchange. Some make your coffee and deliver it with actual, genuine warmth. Some care for your child before, during, or after school. ^^or your parent, or your pets when you are in need of a helping hand. Some (literally) pick your elderly parent off the floor (or ground!) when you are unable to lift them. Some administer life saving drugs or other life saving techniques when a loved one is faced with serious illness or even death. Some pick up litter and leave this world better than when they found it. Some coach you off of whatever addiction you may be using to numb the challenges of this world and your spirits tenderness. Some take in abandoned animals. Some offer practical, albeit unexpected words of wi
