Kim and Joe's Anniversary Session : Hosp Grove Park, Carlsbad

This time, this time we are currently living.
Today, marks the first day of spring.
The sun is peeking just over the hills outside my office window.
The birds are chirping.
The air is cool and crisp.
The sky is blue with dashes of bright white alongside grey, heavy clouds.
Flowers are starting to bloom.

A year ago today, the super-bloom was in full effect.
Fields, layers of colorful flowers everywhere.

Today, we are in such trying, uncertain times.
The ying and the yang.
The ebbs and the flows.

As we were in Canada, the messages of what was happening at home, built and built and built.
Truthfully, I couldn’t believe it, as I’ve never experienced anything like this in my lifetime.
The plane back had only 24 people on it.
The stores, eerie.
As we got home and settled, another side was realized.
The ying and the yang.
People, families were outside, playing, working out, riding bikes, laughing, you name it.
I’ve never seen so many people out, enjoying one another and nature.
And I spend a lot of time outside.

Being an entrepreneur, my heart is heavy as I can feel a small part of this impact this is having on both local businesses and global for that matter. What is going to come as a result of this, time will tell.
What I am doing in this current time, is doing what my soul naturally does.
I am holding space for those effected by this uncertain time.
I am choosing to see the positive of what this can bring.
I am trusting in this being a part of a greater plan.

My dream, is that the plan is to bring families back together, bring individuals closer to their hearts and souls,
to bring our society, communities, the nation and the world back together
through the understanding that we are all truly connected.

My dream is that people really connect with their values,
reconnect with their priorities and submerge themselves in mother nature.

My dream is that we as individuals, as communities, as a nation,
as a world, slow down, honoring the present moment.

My dream is that this, this is a time to come back to ourselves.

My heart truly goes out to all those with and effected due to this virus.
For those infected, I am sending you health. For those lost, my soul is with your loved ones.
For those who jobs, businesses, livelihoods have been lost, put on hold,
​I am trusting that you will be supported, guided, taken care of.
​I am with you.
