Welcome to your Sunday LoveGram. 

Thank you to all of you sweet souls who are here, sharing in these weekly LoveGrams with me. I appreciate you so much. 

I hope you can see how kind and loving you are. 

I’m grateful that we are here, sharing what matters most in life.

Today’s LoveGram is being sent to you with oodles of love β€” and no audio attachment. 

This has been a tough season for me. If you have ever gone through a “Dark Night of the Soul,” or a season of grief, I’m sure you understand. 

There is no linear path to healing, and there is seemingly no rhyme or reason to when the waves of emotion wash over me.

Today there is a big wave. 

There’s personal stuff happening. And there is big grief all around me, for people I know and for this country I live in, and for the world. 

It’s okay. As we all know, humans go through a lot of emotions. We can’t expect life to always feel one certain way. And we certainly can’t expect it to always feel sunny.

As a form of self-care, instead of creating an audioβ€”which takes a certain kind of energy I simply don’t have at the momentβ€”I want to share this quote (up above and below) that I found recently: 

“Life takes you to unexpected places; LOVE brings you home.” 

Perhaps right now YOU are being taken to some challenging, sad, unsettling, or upsetting places?  

If you are, I want you to know I’m here with you. 

I also want you to know that you can take a deep breath, right here and now, and allow yourself to feel love. 

Let yourself LOVE yourself for any and all the feelings you have. Be grateful that you are not hiding from or avoiding anything that might be unexpected or uncomfortable.

I appreciate you and am grateful for your kind and compassionate heart. 

Be extra gentle with yourself. 

Seek celebration β€” even in dark corners,
