The Hope Note: beauty in small beginnnings
Hope in bloom: Can you see the beauty in small beginnings? Little delights. Progress. No confetti moments. Quiet, unassuming. Subtle. Gentle. Day by day. Drinking in the sunshine and showers. Grace to slowly unfurl and wake from a long winter. One day you’re on a walk and notice sunshine daffodils nodding in the breeze while all else is bare. Hope blooms unexpectedly at times.
Where Hope Blooms
I used to think my words didn’t matter. They were just raw feelings on a page, scribbled in notebooks, hidden away so that no one would find them. No one would know the depths of my sorrows, my anger, my depression. I was too much for anyone except the audience of a blank page. Without pretense or judgement.
You’re Not Behind
Are you already feeling overwhelmed and behind?
You’re not.
I’ve felt it, too. Even through Christmas break, I felt this pressure to put out emails just because that’s what I do on Fridays. But I pushed back against performing. I don’t want to put empty words in your inbox. Your heart matters to me.
