If you’re anything like me, the day before a big trip feels almost overwhelming with energy… Last minute checklists, frantic shopping for that one thing (what am I missing? Where’s my list?)… Prepping your home/pets/office for your time away… It can be a little nutso, and instead of being in-the-moment you might become frazzled. Total buzz-kill! I’m intentionally carving out these next few hours to daydream about the awesome adventures awaiting me. I’m purposefully realigning the energy in me and around me to feel more blissful, less chaotic. Whatever doesn’t get done can wait until I get back, because baby,…

I do not ignore all that is broken and in need of repair. I choose to focus my attention on the many things in my life to be grateful for, and it makes every day that much richer. I gives me a thread of Beauty to hold onto, to pull me back up when everything else is tearing me down.

Days turn into weeks turn into months turn into years. What do we learn in our brief time on the wheel of life? I have learned I am more and more grateful for the little things, the niceties, the goodness of humanity. Little things matter, like “please” and “thank you”… Warm smiles and friendly waves go a long way… Kindness is beautiful… Well chosen words and sincere compliments can mend hurt feelings… And love, LOVE- always wins.

My parents [rest in peace <3] always reminded me that I’m a Dreamer. Sometimes it was said as a compliment, but not usually. I didn’t care, because I always knew it to be true and never saw it as a negative quality. I think it’s part of my magic. In the wake of the most recent acts of terrorism and the following waves of hatred, fear, intolerance and increased ethnocentrism around the globe- I have to Dream. I have to Dream of a better world. I have to Dream of people from all walks of life, just living day by…
