This fence was torn apart by the destructive forces of Hurricane Irma to reveal the stunning majesty that lies within. I’ve discovered that sometimes pain comes into our life to tear open the walls we built to protect ourselves so we can share our beauty with the world again. While certainly painful, I have great gratitude for those painful times. Other times we do the work to learn to love ourselves more... tearing down the wall of lies that contains us to allow our hearts to be able to finally expand and share the unique song your heart sings... not just a few lines.

On my grateful walk with Bella, I noticed two hearts looking a little bruised and worn. I thought about how my heart has felt the same way and then looked at Bella to discover she had been digging for treasure again. Bella reminded me that:

May today you remember that the
polluting expectations
grimy behaviors
and
cruddy words
of others
cannot change
the beauty of your soul.
Wash off the muddy energy
and allow
the beauty of you
to shine through again.
Wishing you a day connecting to your true beauty and may gratitude overflow your heart.

On a recent grateful walk to the West Martello Fort, Bella and I sat and watched nature overcome the wallsbuilt by man as a means of protection from the darkness of humanity.I thought about how I have createdwalls around my heartto keep out the darkness of humanityand no matter how high I have built them,goodness always finds a waypast my barriers.May today find blessings spilling over any walls your heart may have builtand your heart swimming in goodness.-Jenny and Bella
May today find you
honoring yourself for facing and learning from
any old fears that used to paralyze you
and now no longer have any charge in you.
And if any old fears
try to bite into you again,
smile and say, “Not today Mr. Pickles”.
