Life Legacies

A card I got from my Grandmother.



Live deep

Never stop learning, playing, or finding wonder in the world around you. Live the length of your life, but live the depth of it as well.



Travel light

There is no use in carrying around worry and regret. They only weigh you sown. Always keep yourself open to hope and to love. They give us wings.


Forgive imperfections 

in yourself and others. Imperfections keep things interesting. They're the cracks where the light shines through. 


Own beautiful things 

And not just to keep in the drawer, tucked away for a perfect day. Surround yourself with things that make you happy, that remind you of beauty all around us if we only keep our eyes open to it.  


Make mistakes 

Follow detours. Sometimes it takes an unexpected turn to help us find the life that is waiting for us around the bend. Trust yourself and the path  that is meant for you. 

Take care of yourdelf

And sometimes that means you need the ice cream. Be good to your body, but also to your mind and spirit. You're the only one who can.


And always, always know you are loved

You are a gift to this world and blessing to me. And that we never change.
