With my best wishes
Here’s to fresh starts, new beginnings, second chances, new life, rejuvenation, and revival. All the rewards that come from the energy and effort you have put into transforming, to being the best version of your self you can be.

Support for the project
The blog continues to evolve, as does my relationship to the project and my purpose for pursuing it. What began as a cathartic, and somewhat explosive, release and redirection of energy, has shifted into a grounded, soulful flow of experience and reflection as further growth occurs.
