Welcome on a new edition of my weekly ritual, Gratitude Friday (if you are not familiar with it, please go read how it came up and what it is about).

Many tears were shed this week. Many silent screams happened, too. It is asking me a great deal of energy to simply try to focus on anything good that could have taken place. This is when I remind myself what I keep telling you: it does not have to be big, the small things filling your heart with joy matter as much as the bigger ones, if not most.

This week, I am thankful for:

• The presence of my Mom and my Husband
• Books giving me a gate-away form
• The playdate with Melissa
• Hope
• People doing their best to help us
• Binge-watching Dawson’s Creek on Netflix as when I was a teen
• Creating videos for my Youtube channel

What about you ? Do you use Gratitude to mend your heart ? What are you thankful for right this moment ? do no overthink it, let it fuel your Soul <3

Welcome on a new edition of my weekly ritual, Gratitude Friday (if you are not familiar with it, please go read how it came up and what it is about).

What a week full of hope and celebration and despair. Yes, all of that, and even more. We (my husband and I) are sleep deprived, stress induced and my head is in a constant state of throb.

But this week, I am thankful for:

• Plan B-s that work and gave us a little bit of peace of mind
• Selling our townhome quickly
• Having my Husband and my Mom always anchoring me
• The life ahead of us
• Songs that do not belong to my own faith but still strike a chord (listening to Hillsong Worship)
• Sleep when it happens
• Knowing, like in my guts, that everything will eventually work out magically (with a lot of work)
• Focusing on the here and now
• New opportunities
• Meaningful clothing
• Hot baths (always)

I am sitting at home, listening to the heavy rain falling on our balcony. After 7 years+ in BC I am still not used to so much rain or to the grey skies. I wish I would not mind that much, or that it would not affect my mood as it does, but I can’t deny it does. So doing this ritual right now is perfect.

This week, I am thankful for:

• The possibility to go with my husband to Québec for a few days, house hunting.
• The next best steps unfolding.
• The movie Joy, that I watched in the plane, and the positive lessons from it.
• My mentor, Elle North.
• Making and editing video and the pleasure it brings in my life.
• Seeing my daily Nixies back to back in the video I make of them every month (have you seen the April collection yet ?).
• Being back home with the girls.
• Hot baths, always.
• Finding a new home after visiting a dozen and big deceptions. Now crossing our fingers it IS ours.
• The next best steps for selling our home in BC are in motion.

Another week is coming to an end. Funny how when you focus on time, your perspective around it changes. Time is linear without being that linear depending on how we feel it. How strange.

This week, I am thankful for:

• The flexibility offered by working from home
• Good surprising books (what are you reading right now ?)
• Unexpected moments in my Studio
• Meditation
• Not always being afraid to ask for helps
• Cuddles
• Sunshine
• Morning walks/talks
• The things moving forward
• Figuring out fun things to add to my videos
• Kindred I can just be with.

Tell me, what are you thankful for this week ? what brought you a silver lining ?

What a week… I really hope it will end on an high note because lots of struggle and tears happened in the last few days. However, when I sit to share with you, it shifts my energy and my perspective. I am curious: do you work with Gratitude ? how often ? how ?

This week, I am thankful for:

• People buying my Nixies and giving them new homes.
• Our morning walks.
• The trust my daughters invest in me, and the secrets they share with me.
• My Mom and my husband.
• Having found a tank top I love but totally forgot I had, hidden within my socks drawer.
• Discovering new music (any recommendations ?)
• Books and baths.
• Crystals and their magic.
• Making videos.
