  • Silence

    The silence of loneliness can be deafening.

  • Dance

    Dance dammit dance.

    Some regrets will never

    have words

    but the rhythm of music

    speaks volumes.

  • Setbacks

    A setback is something that happened. It isn’t something you are.

  • The last line

    The worst things are rarely the loudest.
    They settle quietly,
    letting the last line sit there like a bruise.

  • Catching light

    Sometimes a good day is merely catching light at the right angle.

  • Strength

    Real strength comes from quiet consistency more than dramatic gestures.

  • Change

    I was having a chat with ChatGPT about a quote by Albert Einstein on the need to be intelligent to accept change. But we both agreed that it doesn’t really take intelligence to accept change sometimes it just takes guts; raw, messy, heart wrenching guts. And getting back up, always getting back up.

    So, here is our quote on change and intelligence.

    🌿 “Intelligence isn’t loving change — it’s finding your footing when change finds you.”

  • Maybe

    Maybe we want to suffer more than the people we hurt so that they’ll forgive us.

  • On the Edge of Chaos

    Dance on the edge of chaos- it’s where the fire feels real. – Mandy Ricks

  • Tiptoe

    Life’s too short to tiptoe through someone else’s rules. -Mandy Ricks with Willow

  • Today

    I hope today you fall in love with being you. -Mandy Ricks with Willow

  • Waiting

    It’s that waiting time of year, that pause between seasons when waiting becomes the overwhelming feeling.

    But we all need pauses times to prepare for what’s next. Moments of pause to refresh our thoughts, reorganize our priorities, visit our goals, and reconnect to our dreams. Above all, never let go of those dreams. -Mandy Ricks
