  • 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.

    -Mandy Ricks

  • 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.”

    -Mandy Ricks and my friend @ ChatGPT

  • 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

  • Magic days

    The trees droop laden with the innocence of snow. Footprints lead the way to somewhere you want to go. While the season chills us we still wander through magic days. Enjoy. -Mandy Ricks

  • Trust

    Maybe it feels like the world is in chaos, with a maniac at the helm yelling, “bring on the fire.” Maybe you feel like running away. But trust, calm will return, wrapped in your insight, and you will want to go home again. -Mandy Ricks

  • Hope

    Sometimes, against all odds, all logic, we still hope.

    That’s what the holidays are all about: hope.
