(Get specific: think shades, hues, tint, tone, vibrancy etc. for example, cerise, coral, and bubblegum are types of pink, but each exudes a different spirit) 2 QUOTES WORTH PONDERING1. A beautiful grief poem by David Romano: When tomorrow starts without me
And I’m not here to see If the sun should rise and find your eyes All filled with tears for me I wish you wouldn’t cry
The way you did today While thinking of the many things We didn’t get to say I know how much you love me
As much as I love you Each time that you think of me I know you’ll miss me too When tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand That an angel came and called my name And took me by the hand The angel said my place was ready
In Heaven far above And That I would have to leave behind All those I dearly love But when I walked through Heaven’s Gates
I felt so much at home When GOD looked down and smiled at me From his golden throne He said This Is Eternity
And all I promised you Today your life on earth is done But here it starts a new I promise no tomorrow
For today will always last And since each day’s the exact same way There is no longing for the past So when tomorrow starts without me
Do not think we’re apart For every time you think of me Remember I’m right here in your heart. REFLECTION PROMPTS:

MONTHLY REMINDER Reader, your intuition is a gift, not a glitch. That quiet knowing, that gentle tug, that whisper you almost ignored—it’s not a malfunction, it’s a message. Trust the parts of you that sense the shift before there’s proof; they were built to guide you home. REFLECTION PROMPTS: When was the last time I trusted myself without needing to explain why? What signals does my intuition use to speak to me—and do I honour them? What would change if I treated my inner knowing as sacred,...
MONTHLY REMINDER Reader, silence can be sacred—but don’t confuse suppression for stillness. REFLECTION PROMPTS: What have I been silencing that wants voice? Is my quiet a sanctuary or a hiding place?
