![]() For my birthday this year a sister-friend gave me an amazing gift of StoryWorth. Each week, for 54 weeks, I answer a question that shows up in my email about family, childhood and more. Responses can be short or long and if I have a picture, I send one along. At the end of the year I’ll receive a book with all my stories in it. This continues to be an enjoyable walk down memory lane. StoryWorth (this isn't an affiliate link)

This is the life coach coming out in me. Although when it’s my issue, they can fade to the back at times. One question that has been helpful is: If this was a friend’s issue and they were open to a question to get them thinking, what would it be?

I remember the robust, full of energy woman she was and it’s sad to see her dwindling and know she’s not going to be here for very much longer. Often, I want to push the sadness away but it’s okay to acknowledge and allow it flow through me in a natural way, like a stream flowing in, through and out of me in a peaceful way.
