Present

G R A T I T U D E

Currently, I’m focusing my time and attention on being present for my wife, my daughter, and my family. My time, being there, is the greatest gift I can give them.

Because of family loss and tragedy, I was struggling with relating to myself, my spouse — and in a larger sense — my perception of the world. My writings have been vulnerable experiments and expressions of uncertainty, risk, and emotional exposure. Creatively, I’ve been learning to open my heart and find the courage to be myself again.

Writing and sharing with you has been a major source of my healing. Facing my emotional pain and confusion hasn’t been easy. Thank you for holding my hand through this process. I’m grateful for your gentle challenges and support over the years.

I am worthy — and everyday I’m more hopeful and thankful. I’m opening my mind to life’s tricky perspectives. I’m starting to fully appreciate the diverse colours, hues and wondrous changes (and challenges) of this moment. I’m in awe of our kaleidoscope. Thank you for sharing and caring during my transformation.
