Happy Friday friends! I have been a little distracted lately because we adopted a rescue puppy last weekend! This is Romeo. He had a bit of a rough start in life, but is now getting pampered. Cupid is slowly accepting him. 😊

Taking a much needed break from the cold winter to relax and recharge Puerto Rico this week. It is so beautiful here and everyone has been so kind and lovely. Yesterday, we took a hike in El Yunque forest to get this view.

I have been enjoying this book. It is full of great info, and it is reminding me that no matter how powerful some people think they are, they are still just insignificant specs of dust in the giant universe.

Good morning lovely people! I have been thinking of this quote a lot lately. When I feel overwhelmed, I remember to try and do loving actions, even if is just a smile to a stranger, or checking in on a friend to make sure they are ok. Small acts are important because they help us build strength.
Love is not a thought, it is an action. And each loving action that we take infuses us with more energy for loving action in the future. -Rolf Gates

This past week has reminded me how important my yoga practice is. Diving into self study (Svadhyaya) by rereading these two gems. They are perfect guides for uncertain times. 🙏
