Journey 2 Zendipity

Hi you!

I want to start by saying a special thanks to those who received the link to this post and chose to take the time to read. Thank you! ❤ I appreciate y’all and hope you find it worth while.

Please hang in there & read though, you’ll soon know why you received this link.

As some of you may know, my son and I have a memory gratitude jar. We start it at the ball drop and throughout the year we add the things we are most grateful for, things that happened that meant something to us, and even just a feeling of joy we received from anything. It’s something between us because it’s mostly just us but anyone can add to it. The memories can literally be anything, and some wild shit is usually shared that ends up being a good laugh, but usually, the very best gratitude memory written is about a random ass Tuesday that ended in hardcore belly laughs or something small but so unexpected that it shook us to our core in a positive way. On New Year’s Eve, we sit at the table and take turns pulling out the memories. We just chill and take the time to sit in pure authentic gratitude, talk shit to each other lol, and just allow the memories to fill that current moment with all those incredible feels from each of the cards. We’ve been doing it for 3 years now and I love it because you really can’t help but get up from that table with a full heart and soul.

So, why did I send you this random ass link? Well it’s because you are a name in the jar or part of a memory in that jar and this year I wanted to spread the good feelings of a full heart and soul to those that filled mine.

“Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. ” Thomas A. Edison *I prefer when it’s read ” People miss opportunities because it shows up dressed in overalls and looks like a whole lotta work” yee haw! LOL

You see, life is made up of so many little choices that add up to big ones and sometimes we miss opportunities to make a difference in someone’s life out of fear. Today I chose to not miss the opportunity to hopefully make someone that made me smile, receive a smile back.

How do we change a world full of hate? How do we leave the world a little bit better when it’s our time to go? What creates a true legacy? The love that we spread one moment and one person at a time. One kind act at a time. So just for this moment, all I ask is that you please soak up the love that I am so genuinely sending you because I believe whole heartedly that you deserve it.

Often we go about our lives not really noticing how we impact another person’s life. Not very often that we as humans choose to be vulnerable and say something wholehearted like “you changed my life”. We have taken words like “I love you”, “I’m Sorry”, “I appreciate you” and have turned them into a thing we say as habits and though we may mean them, we rarely take the time to truly express what is behind them.

You received this link because YOU MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE, you changed my life and I appreciate you.

Oh, I can hear it now.. “but I did nothing”.. that is for me to decide. Our encounter, a moment shared, words exchanged.. they somehow helped me. That IS changing a life, I can confirm this is true in my life. Even if you just took the time to acknowledge another person’s existence.. if you’ve read my ghost post, you’d understand that it DOES make a difference.

Each of you reading this have experienced something this year and priors, that has rocked your world. Made you question yourself, and a lot in life, but I wanted to tell you today that though I don’t have the answers as to why you went through what you’ve gone through, I know that your purpose is something greater than you think. Why? Because even on a random ass Tuesday.. you make a difference in another life. Probably even more often than you could ever imagine. Even when you feel like it’s not possible.. you do.

If you are reading this and we aren’t active in each other’s lives, I want you to know that it’s okay.. I hold no hate or discomfort as I hope the same is true in return and I still send you love. You too made a difference in my life and again, I hope the same is true in return.

Maybe it was a kind gesture, a compassionate word, a simple check-in without knowing it was a day I needed it so much, maybe it was a lesson, or maybe without you realizing you answered a question I had asked the Divine.

Thank you for not missing the opportunity to be kind, Thank you for choosing to push through the bad to make it to another day, Thank you for being you with flaws and all.

I am made up of all my experiences in life which include each of you. Each encounter, each exchanged word, each act of kindness, every hello… they all have continuously aligned me to the woman I am and realign me to the woman I want to be.

:: Insert your name:: , I am so truly grateful for you. I am wishing you all the beauty, joy and peace that the world has to offer you this coming year. I am wishing you enough. I am praying for your heart and soul. Most importantly, I am praying for your strength to continue to push through all the downs that come along with this rollercoaster of life. I have absolutely no doubt that you are meant for something greater than you can see and that you will continue to impact lives as you have mine. How big of an impact is never what matters most, just the fact that you trusted your intuition enough to take a chance to simply be kind and be you.

Happy New Year, my friend/old friend/acquaintance/lesson/stranger/etc. :: insert laugh track::

I love you all, I am proud of you all, & here is to hoping that in 2023 we get to impact each other’s lives a little bit more. *Cheers*

With all my Love & Gratitude,
