Summer time… and the living is easy
Vol 5 June 2024
Hola Friends 👋
There is always something going on. Something to distract or entice our concentration away.
The world is not going to go away, just because we are trying to be brave & grateful.
We persist with our practice of #GratitudeInPublic, because it’s the best way of bringing our thoughts & hearts back to center, & to wrangle in the “overthink”.
Here are some of the best articles that helped me lighten up my mood. Reminders that there is more to life than the busy mess around us.
Healing Eyes: My Journey From Pain To Gratitude
Luna, has a fabulous outlook on life! She has also been through the wringer. I read about her family legacy & was blown away! Then she shared some of the challenges with her physical health on #G4.
There is POWER in overcoming our experiences with gratitude. I appreciate Latinx Bridges for compartiendo=sharing her bravery in the face of pain. Gracias!
Reflecting on My Parents
Jeff Allen has been a new author with #G4. His articles are divine because of the personal reflections. Here is his latest…
It is always the personal articles that draw my attention in. I’m always so grateful for authors when they share such warm, close parts of their lives. It conveys a cozy kinship.
Grateful for Time with Dad
Ivy Gooden has been inspirational to me. She started a writing club locally. Imagine the courage to invite others to meet up and write together.
She also always finds something to be grateful for. Here is a short but moving article that brought up many great personal memories. I appreciate your writings very much, Ivy Gooden. Thank you!
Quick update about the publication.
As summer is in full swing in the Northern Hemisphere, we are getting busy outdoors. So it’s no surprise that readership is slagging off a bit… It is definitely more important to be out there active, enjoying our loved ones in nature. We are still steady in our #GratitudeInPublic campaign.
Just a note:
Divina & I are going on Vacation at the end of the month. We will pause our writing for a couple of weeks. 💃
We will not pause our gratefulness. It MUST continue!
Reading to publish your drafts for the publication is still possible on the phone. Please continue to send them! It will bring us great joy on our trip! It may take a day longer, between driving and visits, but surely there will be time to make sure your gratitude stories are shared! 🤟
