That is beautiful and what I needed to read. I want to keep discovering the "newness in places and people." There is so much going on, I need a new way to focus. Thank you.

Thank you!! Allowing the new feels like a child jumping in a puddle - they all felt different as a child - not once did I ever pass a puddle and think “oh I’ve jumped in one before all good” they were always new, waiting for a splash! 🤍 time to jump in some puddles again!

Ahhhh....I just want to quote ALL of this! What a space to be in, where change blooms renewal! My goodness...."I am finding peace in the exquisite process of becoming"...."It's in the breaking that we're given the chance to become..." Whew! Got some God-bumps with this one! That breaking is something rough, yet as you so wisely remind " what we become is our choice". It's all in the answers to what, when, how, and why we choose--meshing--that brings us center, amidst peace. Sprouting from that place, well, an ultimate origin point from which to grow and flourish. With this piece a beginning, this next chapter may just be your BEST yet! All the cheers, well wishes, hugs and blessings in your "becoming"!

MUCH LOVE my friend,

~Wendy💜

Wendy!! You are the absolute best hype crew a person could ever have, thank you!!! I do believe this could be the best yet, let's buckle up and go for a ride!!! It's funny - "leaning in" to being fractured feels a lot better than resisting the breaking... It feels like a gift that I am able to embrace it rather than run away from it... Maybe all those years of journaling and meditating are finally paying off! Thank you!!!!!!!

Awww, hugs. Always cheering for you, my friend!

What you said though! THAT is such a true revelation...."leaning in" to being fractured feels a lot better than resisting the breaking... It feels like a gift that I am able to embrace it rather than run away from it..." Wow, yes! Crazy how right you are! Have never thought of doing anything but fighting the break. Doing that may just be what makes it so darn miserable. Finding the space of acceptance and peace for the come-what-may sounds like a much better way to face those rough times and come away more whole. LOVE THIS! 🙌💜✨🤗

I love this line of yours "It's in the breaking that we're given the chance to become, but what we become is our choice". It's such an empowering perspective and one I'm excited to embrace. Thank you ❤️
