Today was a good day. I went on a walk with a friend. I bought a much needed hat, that my dad being my dad will probably steal. I had a lovely quiet morning. I found myself in a garden on my walk home, and couldn’t help but admire the beauty around me. I will soon be eating Thai food and watching Pride and Prejudice and honestly, I wouldn’t want my day to end in any other way.

What are the anchors for your soul? After a long day of a job that I loved, I had to get away. I found a quiet corner, this chair that I love, and started reading. Even though college hasn’t been very kind to my desire to read for fun, it isn’t lost on me that the way I needed to find rest was to read. Cracking open a book (even on Kindle) helped me catch my breath. My heart slowed down and my mind stilled to keep a unhurried pace with the words on a page. Add a cozy chair and a cup of tea and I’m on my way to heaven. Take note of where you run when your body is tired and your mind is heavy. Take note of what replenishes you versus what just tires you out further. The anchors for your soul are what keep you human, alive to the wonder of being.

Last week, I saw @thestorysofarca and it was an utter full circle moment. This band whose album I listened to all first year of college I finally got to see in my fourth year. 🎶 “How did we get here? It feels like a light year.” I completely agree, TSSF. Hope you get a chance to jam around to a beloved band and you come alive. ☺️

Now that signs of spring are finally here, it’s a good time to look back and reassess your winter. 🍃 What did you learn? How did you feel? What ways did you mark time? Where were you the most comfortable and where were you not? Take some time to name and notice the season that has past in order to embrace the one to come. And don’t forget to notice what’s currently blossoming around you. 🌷

I took Saturday to rest. ☀️ I took Saturday to lay in the sun and be still. I took Saturday to reflect on the end of 2021, and I found that there were some hidden nuggets of wisdom for my future self at a time where I thought I struggled with growth. I took Saturday to turn back to my past self for wisdom. I took Saturday to think about the surprising things that have taken place in 2022. I took Saturday to release my hold on my agenda to make space for God’s. May the life God has called you to unfold, may you be open to receiving it, whatever it looks like. 🌿

Life looks a lot like this lately. Taking a picture before heading out the door. Braving whatever Virginia weather happens to decide it’s wants to be. I give you permission. This is a phrase a friend gave me, and it gave me permission to do what needed to be done. I give you permission to rest. I give you permission to breathe. I give you permission to cry. I give your permission to love. I give you permission to dance. To play. To sleep. To dream. Friend, give yourself permission. I promise it’ll be worth it!
