" I am no one special. Just a common man with common thoughts.
I've led a common life.
There are no monuments dedicated to me,
and my name will soon be forgotten.
But in one respect, I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived :

One day you will realize that happiness is not what your house looks like, but how you love the people within its walls.
Happiness is not finding success by a certain time, but finding something you love so much time itself seems to disappear.

What is Luxury?
They made us believe that luxury was the rare, the expensive,
the exclusive. Everything that seemed unobtainable.
Now we realize that Luxury were those little things we didnt know how to value when we had them, and now that they'

I will never give explanations for my needs of solitude.
There are no sorrows, no melancholy, no depression.
They are found.
I feel safe in the quiet.
I have the feeling of freedom.
"When a woman speaks her truth, fires up her intention and feeling, staying tight with the instinctive nature, she is singing, she is living in the wild breath-stream of the soul."

Over time, I’ve built my own sanctuary of unbothered

I’ve found myself thinking “I couldn’t go through this again.”
But when I think about it -
I mean, really think about it –
that’s not true.
If I had my time again…
I would know you again.
I would love you again.
And if that meant I would lose you again,

I love listening to the rain pitter pattering on the hood of my coat.
I love watching storms dance around the sky from behind a window.
I love feeling the warmth of the sun when I’m sitting in the shade.

Grief is unpredictable, it comes in stages,
in the blink of an eye, our whole world changes.
To deal with the loss, we search for a way,
to help us get through, each harrowing day.
Denial, the first stage, is one of disbelief,
we have no idea, how to dea
The thing about grief is
it can never fully go away,

it grates at my heart

HELLO OCTOBER
THE SEASON OF LETTING GO
And so begins the season of letting go,
when Mother Nature shows us all,
how it’s done.
Let go,
free yourself,
shake it off,
drop it,
give way for the new.
Create space for new thoughts, new ideas,
