I write this as I sit on a bus ride along the coast of Ireland, vast and lush green fields to my right and incredible cliffs leading down to the ocean to my left.
I absolutely love to travel. I tell people all the time that it fills me up; brings joy and excitement and perspective to this heart of mine. And there is a deep knowing in my soul that is prompted by this question:
What fills you up?
What are the people & the places & the things that make you feel that excitement & joy for life?
The truth is: we don’t know how much time we get here on Earth. And I am reminded now, as I journey across new land & am in awe at how big and beautiful the world is, that I want to keep traveling and doing the things that fill me up. We are allowed to feel joy; allowed to choose things that brighten our days and add a glimmer of extra beauty to this life we get to live.
Choose those things for yourself. Plan them, schedule them, get them into your days. You are worthy of allowing yourself joy.
And now, back to looking out my window at this seemingly surreal view…

Always,
Elle
