When Hello is Enough :)

Hi All,

I had grand plans to come back here to this space this week with all the energy that a new year brings. Instead, I am coming here feeling tired and a bit defeated Since we turned the calendar ten days ago, we have witnessed a terror attack in New Orleans and the most devastating destruction in Los Angeles.

How are we meant to process so much all the time?

I am currently reading and loving Once There Were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy. Inti, the book’s main character, experiences the physical sensations of people and animals around her. I think I might have the emotional version of this. I can’t stop scrolling on Instagram looking for updates on the fires and checking the feeds of various friends and Instagrammers I follow who live in or near LA.

This week, I meant to get back to a newsletter series I used to love writing- Reading. Watching. Listening.- and I will but for today, I am going to keep it simple. I keep wondering how we are meant to process this all and I think the answer is- we are meant to process it together. So I’m here saying hi and that I hope you are all well. And for today, that is enough.

xo,

Stacey
