Let's be friends on Instagram!

"I would tell you to go stand in the sun and bask in its light for awhile, but you do not need to. You. Are. The. Sun. Energy and radiance and this thing that, no matter how many times it goes down, never fails to rise again. ⠀
⠀
You are beautiful. You are glowing. You literally help people grow, giving them nourishment and strengthening their roots... transforming their dormant dreams into blossoms of reality. Too often we take the sun for granted... assuming that its rays will simply always keep shining for us. You do not deserve that neglect. You deserve to surround yourself with those who appreciate your brilliance and love you for your warmth. ⠀
⠀
I don’t know what the weather is in Pittsburgh, but here is cold... but sunny.. very sunny actually. It’s a good reminder that, especially when the world is frozen, it’s even more lovely that the sun keeps on shining."⠀
⠀
@booradley613's words were a balm to my soul yesterday and maybe you need to hear them, too.⠀
⠀
I took this picture back in spring 2017, but I don't think it's a coincidence that I captured Tree of Life Synagogue, glowing in the rise of the sun.
.
It, and we, will rise again.⠀

Anyone else feel like once November hits, it's like a scramble to the end of the year? That sense of things spiraling faster than you can grasp is coming in pretty hot right now and it's tempting to just hold on to the seat of your pants for the next month and a half.⠀
⠀
One of the mindset shifts I've really worked on the past few years is around time. I'm well aware that I have a lot more freedom around my time than I used to, but I also believe that our beliefs around time make up 90% of our stress around it.⠀
⠀
When I can feel myself dipping into the rush of chaos, I repeat this affirmation to myself. Because it's true. We always have enough time. Enough time for the things that matter. Enough time for the things that are supposed to unfold. Enough time to reset and rejuvenate. Enough time to slow down in order to speed up. Enough.⠀
⠀
So take a deep breath. You've got time. No rush.⠀

Meet the corner of my new little office nook. 🌱⠀
⠀
I've felt so far removed from the world the past two weeks, but slowly I am reemerging and creating a new routine for myself. Moving is no joke and I'm so glad that I've had to work my "slow down to speed up" surrender muscle a lot this year in preparation for this transition (and beyond).⠀
⠀
What are some things that help you get regrounded and back to "normal?"⠀

It’s been far too long since I’ve done a #marissaexplores “shoes” picture, but I could not resist these gorgeous colors. 🍁

Yesterday, I closed the doors on my light-filled apartment after a closing ritual of sorts. It's very bittersweet to say goodbye to this special place–a place where I've loved and lost and grown more in the span of three years than I could ever have imagined. I'm not the same person I was when I first stepped into those doors (nor is that apartment...good lord did it need work when I first signed that lease), but I feel more like my truest self leaving it.⠀
⠀
I'm extremely grateful for and humbled by the opportunity to "downsize" in this next season of life as I move in with dear friends, a mere 4 miles away. @ali.erevia and I meant it when we said we were #foreverrooms! Thank you thank you thank you 💛⠀
⠀
Friends, please let me know if you'd like my new address :)⠀

*tap tap tap* Is this thing on? 🎙
