Today brought a small flare, but I didn’t let it ruin my spirit. I spent hours at the pool soaking up the sunshine and making memories, then treated my granddaughter to a sweet little outing. Moments like these they matter most.
This summer, I’m committed to creating memories, not just passing time. I’ve got so many plans brewing, from outings with family to having loved ones visit in the coming months. I’m genuinely excited there’s something beautiful about having both adventure and connection to look forward to.
Lately, I’ve been doing deep inner work really setting boundaries for the first time in my life and protecting my peace. For too long, I lacked that protection, and because of my big, empathetic heart, I’ve been used, mistreated, and tossed aside. But now? I’ve learned.
I’ll never stop loving hard that’s who I am but only a few get close enough to experience the depth of who I truly am. I want nothing but peace and love for myself and others. I can’t carry hate I just wasn’t built for it. I pray for people, even those who’ve hurt me. Forgiveness is something I do for me, and it’s made me stronger.
I want to be a living example to my adult kids, my grandkids, and everyone who crosses my path that healing is possible, growth is powerful, and choosing love is never a weakness.
I’m incredibly proud of who I’ve become and the amazing family I have. I hope your Memorial Day weekend was safe, peaceful, and full of love. Every day is a gift never take it for granted.
