Bring Joy and Nature to a Grieving Heart

It's been a tough year this one. My birthday is coming up tomorrow on the 27th of August and my mom's death day being the 20th of August, in her words for her last birthday it's kind of a "crappy happy birthday."

Birth and death, the only things we humans are assure of on this journey. I open to grief but I also open to joy and love. Given that my hopes and requests for my birthday/this time include:

-To be nurtured and cared for

-To leave a comment of affirmation for me or to remind me I'm a good human

-To be surprised and taken on adventures

-To be loved up, snuggles and get hugs

-To receive presence, listening, and curiosity

-To get some money support to get a kayak! In order to adventure and play and connect with nature.

-River buddies to use said kayak with.

If you feel called to any of those I invite you to reach out. If you wanna give a dollar gift to supporting some fun, here's a link (nothing to small, seriously, $1 from 1000 people is all I neeeeed). I also reiterate why doesn't everyone do this? If you send me such a gofundme I got $5 on it, we gotta keep that energy/money circulatin'.
