The sun appeared one time for 10 minutes while we were on the gulf coast. Fortunately, it was at sunset in a blaze of fire over a stormy sea 🌊🌅

Back in Florida! Can you tell I like it here?

This time I’m checking in from the beautiful coastal town of Mexico Beach, a resilient little town on the Gulf. My family bought a home here before Hurricane Michael (a Cat 5) hit back in 2018. Mexico Beach was absolutely devastated by that storm. But like I said, the people here are strong and don’t give up easily. While some homes have been rebuilt, a number have not. Devastation like this takes time to recover from. It is humbling and inspiring to witness.

Being here reminds me to be grateful for what I do have. To not take anything for granted. And inspires me to be resilient in my own life as well.

When things get hard, remind yourself of this:

“I am resilient. My mind, body and spirit are strong. I embrace all life’s challenges. I face my fears rather than hide from them. I choose happiness each day. I believe in the power of hope. I live my life with trust and courage. I set goals I can’t possibly achieve and then I grow into the person who can. I make time to reflect, rest and recharge. I ignore doubters and naysayers especially if they are in my head. I continually nudge my comfort zone because I refuse to live a life that is simply good enough. I believe love and compassion are necessities not luxuries. I know that no matter what happens in my life I will be okay.” - Resilient Living (found on Pinterest 🥰)
