"Life is too deep for words, so don't try to describe it, just live it." -C.S. Lewis

Hello, beautiful friends! I hope all is well. I don't know about you, but it felt like January lasted a year, and February was only a day long. It is as if time is either moving at warp-speed or in slow-motion. There is no in-between!

I absolutely love spending time near the ocean, especially in the very early hours of the morning or right at sunset. I love the sea breeze on my face, the sound of the waves crashing to the shore, and the taste of the rich, salty air. It's my happy place.  Earlier this month, I sat on the beach overthinking All.Of.The.Things. Does this ever happen to you? It felt like every aspect of my life was on display, like the news tickers you see in Times Square; my mind was spinning away. And then, out of nowhere, a HUGE wave crashed over me.  I kid you not; I was soaked and even had to leap into the receding wave to grab my flip-flops and retrieve my phone.  It was as if the universe needed to get my attention to say, "Woman, if all you ever do is overthink every aspect of your life, you will have no time to truly live it." And you know what I did next? I started laughing because the universe was right! So, drenched and covered in sand, I trudged back to my car, giggling at the ridiculousness of my situation, as well as inspired by this simple but new thought taking root in my soul. Be kind to yourselves, dear friends. Let go of the fears and possible consequences that hold you back. Be brave, curious, and vulnerable.

Oh, I assure you, my overthinking mind is still very active. However, I’ve also experienced a sense of freedom and pure joy, as I’ve let go and granted life to flow more freely, allowing myself to live in all the beautiful moments it has had to offer.

XO
