Last week I took 3 full days for realignment, all in the middle of the week. I rested the first day, dreamed a new reality on the second, and separated my affairs on the third and final day. Everyone should be keeping a daily journal - the Getty needs artifacts from the present. The first quarter is coming to a close today, one-fourth of 2020, scheduled and written. As someone who embraces routine and strives to meet set goals, I had to take time to rewrite my internal clock. It is still okay to ask for what one wants, even in the midst of chaos. There is value in recognizing hope and moving toward it even when one does not feel safe. So many have mentioned how they are able to slow down and realize what their life truly looks like lately. It is nice to cast out old methods of working and embrace the discernment of a new pace.

My wedding ring is from the early 1900s, an Art Deco beauty that has time traveled to me, an object that has lived over 100 years on planet Earth as a ring and seen many things on other hands.
