Another birthday. Another beautiful day enjoyed! đ
Not as a marker of what I should have done by now,
but as a quiet invitation to notice what already is.
The life Iâve built.
The people and beings who walk beside me.
The moments of calm, laughter, grounding and presence that donât need to be earned.
Thereâs something deeply settling about realizing that happiness isnât waiting for a future version of you.
It lives in the small intentional choices you make each day.
To slow down.
To step outside.
To breathe in fresh air.
To connect.
To let joy be simple.
I appreciated the beauty of the moment exactly as it was
The sand under my feet on a beach that I love and go back to often.
The steady companionship beside me.
The reminder that a meaningful life is created in ordinary, intentional moments.
Aging isnât about losing time.
Itâs about gaining clarity, wisdom and appreciation.
About choosing presence over pressure and gratitude over striving.
Getting the opportunity to be a year older is truly a privilege. I never lose sight of that.
Hereâs to another year of living gently, intentionally and fully. đ
