So jealous of everyone seeing the Northern Lights tonight.
Must be nice not having to settle for Maui sunsets.

A year ago this little green companion came home with me, just a tiny cluster of hope in a pot. Today, it’s grown fuller, and stronger reminding me daily that with a little light, patience, and care, life always finds its way forward.
Here’s to one year of growth and to many more seasons together.

Whatever this day held—its stumbles, its small joys, its weariness—you were never outside the circle of care. You were met, again and again, by compassion far beyond your knowing. Let that truth cradle you as you rest.

“Hold fast to your dreams, even when the way is steep. Walk with courage, work with sincerity, and know this: each step, no matter how small, is part of a greater unfolding. The journey itself is enough. Walk gently, and be grateful—for this path, and for all who walk beside you.”

Life is a constant current, always flowing. Progress or retreat isn’t determined by the current itself, but by the courage to steer through it.

People will always have opinions about your choices. Before letting them affect you, consider the source. More often than not, they have no real stake in your life and are simply seeking attention or a reaction—neither of which are worth your time.

Rather than searching for the perfect person, focus on becoming one. When you truly love yourself, you may be surprised by the kind of people who enter your life.

I just finished binge-watching the final episodes of Cobra Kai Season 6, and I have to say, Johnny Lawrence’s redemption arc was incredibly satisfying. I absolutely loved the entire Cobra Kai series and can’t wait for Karate Kid: Legends to be released!
