I wish I could remember the last time…
they ran into my arms & then I tossed them in the air.
The glee & laughter would set the tone for the ride home.
They’d tell me about their week and all the new friends they made.
Then they’d ask about our plans for the weekend and what adventures we were going on.
I wish I could remember. #fatheringfromadistance
"Generational trauma is like a fire in the woods, taking down everything in its path until one person in one generation has the courage to turn and face the flames.

In baseball, the best hitters miss 7 out of 10 times. In basketball, the best miss 1 out of every 2 shots.
Keep shooting. Keep swinging. Keep showing up.
Imagine little me at six years old, adorable, obviously.
Big belly poking out from under a shirt that’s losing the battle. Hair for days. Like a mini lion cub.
“Your entire life happens inside your body.
It’s the one home you will always occupy and can never sell…
Everything is downstream from how your body is functioning.” @jamesclear
This quote shook me.
It refocused me to take care of my mental and physical wellbeing.
One body. One mind. That’s all we get.
You’ll have to work…
into the late hours of the night. But it will be worth it.
