Mile Zero - The Mitten (via Missouri?)

Long Haul

It is SO great that we made it safely home! I have driven every mile from Key West, Florida to Douglas, Michigan. 

I scooped up my parents in Anna Maria Island, and we drove through Missouri, making 2 stops to visit relatives. At that point, what’s a few hundred more miles?

Hi!​

I’m laundering, catching up, and recovering today, so a brief note. 

Just before my super long drive, I read something that REALLY helped me. 

It’s so simple. 

Turns out? Changing just one word, changed everything. 

Instead of thinking, “Today I have to . . . “ 

Trying framing it this way, “Today I get to . . . “

That’s it! 

For me? I would start each day thinking of what I am lucky enough to do. 
I get to help my parents. 
I get to see my cousins. 
I get to watch the full moon rise. 

Changing that one small word had a BIG impact on my days. 
It felt like an instant shift into a place of gratitude. 

I’m going to keep this practice going. 

Join me?

With love, light, and longing for peace,

P.S. Speaking of joining me! I cannot WAIT for the return of Yacht Club Yoga on Saturday mornings! It’s happening in April, so keep watching here.
