I truly believe that every relationship in your life may be explained as simply as this:

To each new person I meet and feel connected to, I toss them a line of colorful thread...this symbolizing a moment of vulnerability.

They can choose to (1) let it fall, (2) catch it, or (3) catch it and toss one back, thus opening the door to us weaving something beautiful together.

My circle includes fabrics as small as fancy restaurant napkins, baby blankets, and tablecloths to items as large as California King size comforters. Each serve their purpose in my life (and in yours)!

For example, if I'm going out for a night of fun ;) I don't necessarily need to bring an entire comforter, but a fancy restaurant napkin to wick the sweat away serves me perfectly. The same may be said for those rainy Sunday mornings; maybe all I want is that comforter or baby blanket to curl up with and feel safe.

But, sometimes, something happens that unravels the fabric or, maybe, torches it. Sure, you miss the comfort or convenience it offered, but I challenge you to think of it this way:

Had that piece not ever been in your life, you would never have realized that you prefer one thread count over another, or one particular color palette over another, or even that maybe you have too many napkins when really, your lifestyle is calling for more blankets and comforters (no shade, haha!).

What it offers is not a loss or grand robbing but, rather, the gift of refined discernment. Let that be a soothing thought, luvs.
