Early Spring reads.šŸ“š

While I’ve read a few non-Romantacy books this past year, I’ve mostly been enthralled with ACORAT, TOG, Blood + Ash, and the Forth Wing book series. IYKYK.šŸ˜

But I took a short hiatus this last month-ish and stumbled on some really great reads. From the first pages of each of these, they felt serendipitous. All super fast reads, but also deeply meaningful.

ā€œA Gift from the Seaā€ - I can’t recall why I reserved this title from the library but after the first paragraph, I was in awe. I’ve already ordered my own copy. While it was written 70 years ago, every word resonated with such relevance and truth.

ā€œThe Healing Power of Reikiā€ - satisfied my continuing curiosity with this healing modality. So many empowering and interesting stories.

ā€œNo One Will Tell you This But Meā€ - a beautiful, creative memoir about the author’s grandmother and the bonds that span generations.

Finally, ā€œWeywardā€ - the only fiction of the bunch and another story that follows the heroines across generations, centuries in this case. Powerful women who once they own their purpose and gifts, are freed.

If you’re looking to anything to your TBR stack, any and all of these would make additions!šŸ“š

5 years ago today we had lunch together before the kids ā€œlong spring breakā€ā€¦that was supposed to be two weeks. It ended up over a year and really nearly 2 before there was a truer sense of ā€œback to normalā€. Today we had a coffee (hot chocolate for him) co-work date; the ā€œanniversaryā€ timing was not planned.

Half a decade sounds so long, but it doesn’t feel that long ago in many ways. I’ve reflected on before and am feeling called to it again.

Much was learned during that time; much has since been forgotten. The connected, yet apart compassion many (or most) had during that time, has been replaced with a blindness towards one another. Whether thru fear, manipulation, ignorance, naivety or a combination of the above. To which none of us are immune.

In that very dark time 5 years ago, our collective added the light. In some respect, the opposite seems true now. The collective is adding to the darkness. Yet there was hope then, there is hope now. Despite not seeing a clear path to it then or now, it’s there. Always. We got through that very uncertain, unpredictable, uncomfortable time…perhaps in some ways it was preparing us for now?

The best I can do now is lean into the trust that goodness and love in the world will light the way thru darkness. Hate and fear doesn’t have to be our only reality — there is always room for acceptance and empathy, we need only decide to choose it. The boundary for tolerance and acceptance does not extent to hate however. Being conscious of what we give our attention + action towards is more important than ever.

Let’s give more of our attention to our connectedness than to our division. Also giving space for my (and many others) truth, that doing so is really f*ing hard right now when so much feels like a horrible reality show dumpster fire.šŸ”„

Savor the small lovely moments like these and let go of any hate or fear that may be holding you and others down.

Trying to make sense.
Writing was the best way I could process thru this morning. Also remembering that a majority does not equate to right or wrong, it just makes it so. That is our democracy, for better or worse. And a vote cast does not necessarily tell the whole story.

May compassion, tolerance and understanding prevail.

I don’t always book myself a massage, but when I do…it’s usually last minute, well past when I need one, and it’s always with the intuitive therapists at ✨

An earlier version of myself would not have taken the time (planned or spontaneous) for this. There would have been too many other more ā€œproductiveā€ things to do, especially on May afternoon (of all times)!

Current me is more mindful of my capacity. I was over capacity for so long. I don’t function well there, even tho on the surface it may have looked like I did. Internally I most definitely did not. I fully appreciate that agency I’m fortunate to have over what’s ā€œon my plateā€, that others may not. But I also used to say ā€œyesā€, way more than I had space for.

So whatever capacity you’re at, be sure you’re including your needs in that equation. If not, what can you put down to make a little space for you?šŸ¤ happy May moms😘

Late Summer, early Fall stack.

Carrying over Outlive from August after buying my own copy. Grateful the had a copy to get me started, but 14 days is not nearly long enough to digest all goodness within the pages.🤯

Highly recommend.

Also, Remarkably Bright Creatures was the loveliest fiction read. Curious to delve into the others to finish out Sept.
