Connection

“There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self.” -Aldous Huxley

I look forward to this weekend. I don’t have a lot planned, and that’s the way I like it.

Improving myself isn’t my priority, but it is a responsibility that I value. My priority is motherhood and connection. But I think this quote is an important reminder that you don’t have to worry about everybody’s improvement. Just be there. Just show up to listen, relate, and share, but not to fix. I like this reminder.

Ok, weekend plans? What are they? Hopefully, there’s some self-care tossed in there.

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
