:::::::
“This one’s for the one who still feels the love pulsing through this earth. For the one who (even though it’s rough out there), wants to take a little time to acknowledge - there’s still something to be grateful for.”
We live in a world today that is really showing its true colors (all of them).
It may be hard (some days) to acknowledge the good. Especially, when sitting in the center of the storm. I feel you, but you’re still here, and I’m here with you. We’re going to use this time and space to keep planting new seeds.
You’re taking a moment to follow a deep impulse. One that is long overdue. You’re remembering to pause, take a beat, and to reflect on (what’s good about life). You’re taking the time to reflect on what you’re deeply grateful for,
to honor the veins of gold.
to journal about and write the stuff down.
To recall what’s good, and remember there’s still inspiration (even when it’s rough).
Again, A Deep Impulse - Long Overdue. The tough stuff gets in the way of remembering, but you’re here.
I see you + I’m right there with you.

Well, There You Have It ~ 101+ Things To Be Grateful For
You can never have too many things on your gratitude list.
If you’ve followed Spirit & Muse for a little while, then you know I’m all about self-discovery + inspiration. What better way to practice diving deep, than to recall (+ honor), what you’re grateful for.
I encourage you to continue ~ opening up that gratitude journal. Write the good down. It does still exist, and writing it down can make a positive impact on your experience.
If you haven’t started a gratitude journal, I encourage you to get a small (inexpensive) notebook (I’ve designed a few here), and line by line ~ write down the things that light you up. It’s worth it!
Live Well & Keep Creating!
