Yes ma'am it's quite the challenge. I feel I'm handling it pretty good.. but we will see when I shoot on open waters next week.

I'm not sure they will start looking in the mirror. The more I practice grace and love.. the more obvious it becomes that we live in a world full of fear.

Fear of trying.. fear of failing.. sometimes even fear of succeeding. I do my best to make it an emotionally safe place on set. That is the best I can do.

Yes. It can get tiresome. Sometimes I try to show grace too much and not express myself. But for the most part.. I really enjoy the new direction my life has turned.

It's funny.. I don't really act that way or do things expecting something in return.

Except here:

That I struggle with. I'm still learning to let go of that "hope".

One foot in front of the other. I know I'll get there.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.

Love at all costs because you are loved well.
