#5: This sparks joy 💥💫
🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹I needed all sparks of joy this week thank you for being part of it😭 I’m in awe of this artist too, especially on the part about being curious on the things she found embarrassing 😭😮💨 will make sure to check out the YouTube video, the interview and the Twitter account! Saving the poem for self doubting day/moment 🍃🌷
I'm trying to find the words to express myself but I probably won't do it right. At the beginning of the year, I began walking to the water with a friend to spark joy. And I showed them this series and specifically the Rest is Resistance book and quote from week #2. Last weekend on the water front there were geese all over. And they showed me the wild geese poem you shared here. I'm sort of floored by the connection that is somehow happening. I appreciate you and this series so much, and I'm loving the way it's now showing up regularly in my life. Thank you for continuing to do this, and inspiring me to find my joy.
