sprinkle magic.

Posted on October 14, 2022 by beth

a tribe not my own, but with the same kind of spirit

—

“surround yourself with people who add value to your life.

who challenge you to be greater than you were yesterday.

who sprinkle magic into your existence,

just like you do to theirs.

life isn’t meant to be done alone.

find your tribe, and journey freely and loyalty together.”

-alex elle

That photo reminds me of my own tribe – – a bit of a mismatch but willing to get along!

Fabulous photo! And as it should be. Animals are so much wiser and smarter than humans! They know the knowledge that is in the Earth, we, lamentably, think we’re the only conscious critters around…

You don’t have to search for people to find people of your tribe. Open your ears and eyes.
But also be ready to maybe examine different tribal ideas that perhaps you have overlooked or never considered.
