stay calm and be kind


Today, I am grateful to have family nearby. My cousin drove three hours today to see my new house and to help me move a desk. I am overwhelmed to have humans in my life that will show up for me like he did today. 

I am learning how to get back to loving myself and treating myself well. I lost a close friend, and I strayed a bit from the path. That is ok. Grief is real and something we need to allow ourselves to feel and process. The purpose of life isn't to ruminate in the past or plan for the future, it's to be right here, right now. It's taken me a long time, and is still an ongoing practice, but I am finally in a place where I can be honest about where I am and look to everything as a gift. 

I accomplished setting up my workstation. This will help me be more productive and keep my body happy. 

I delighted in reconnecting with a friend from college, in seeing my cousin, and in connecting with my friend who is about to have her first baby.
