Be the Light When it's So Easy to See Darkness

Five (Short) things that are on my mind

Hello, your magnificence,

You're invited to become a financial supporter of The Shiny Butter Blog right here. THANK YOU.

(Friday Club members, thank you for already being a supporter. I'm so glad to have your confidence.)

Gorgeous greetings to you, Reader,

Things feel frantic and weird right now. Here are a few things on my mind.

1

The internet where I am at the moment is awful. I'm trying to work around that, but it's really dicey.

2

I'm wildly distracted by my stepfather's recent stroke and recovery. It's okay, though. That's the way things go, and he's coming along.

3

Another giant hurricane is headed toward Florida. Please send your softening vibes that way. And if you're in that area, or anywhere nearby, here are my loving vibrations to you, your family, and your neighbors.

Same for everyone who was in the path of Hurricane Helene. So much compassion for you and everyone affected.

All of our loving, softening vibrations go a long, long way. This is one way that we embody what we want to see in the world.

4

This election is weird. People are really at each other. Don't fall for the divide-and-conquer. We need each other. We're all in this together—this is not a cliché.

5

Look for ways to let in the light at a time when it's easy to shut light out. And look for ways to be the light when it's so easy to see darkness.

Thanks for being on the other side of the screen today—

I have so much love and appreciation for you.

Remember to stay positive, stay shiny, and question every.single.thing.

Coco

P.S. Three more things:

1

Get your compassion on—for you and for everyone:

Getting through election season with your sanity intact

Cultivating respect, even when it doesn't make sense

2

This is a mind-opening, heart-softening, soul-singing book. Purchase it here for $21: Reclaim your mental property. Let me know what you think.

3

Happy Birthday to my mom. She would be 82 today.
