I’ve felt a pull toward putting myself out there and finding small joys to get me through each week. Each day. And here you are with this lovely post full of suggestions that pique my interest. Thank you for this little light of hope. I’m excited to try, especially the prompts that involve loved ones and engaging with new people. I think relationships are the most beautiful piece of the human experience.
Love these so much 😍
