Hi Nwa Fam–I’ve been away for a bit because I’ve recently experienced a major loss. The loss of my father. I needed time to process and grieve. The amalgamation of emotions has been a wild experience and it was cathartic to create these affirmations to honor my dad. My dad was a generous man who at his core was an optimist. He could always find the bright side to any situation and he looked for the opportunities and little joys during his life. While I’m not fully where I need to be, these affirmations have given me comfort. I hope they give comfort to anyone who knows this loss too. Repeat after me if you can. Listen and Absorb.
