Moments That Make Us Free
Hi there, friend ❤️ 🤍 💙
A few weeks ago, my dad came to visit.
We’ve always gotten along so beautifully, but these three days were different.
I could feel how much we’ve grown, both individually and together…that we weren’t just speaking as father and daughter, but as two friends, eager to learn more about each other.
One of the things I’ve regretted since my mom passed, is that I never got the opporunity to ask her the deeper questions... that I never got to know her deeper heart...
What she feared in the dark, what she wished for on shooting stars, what her soul dreamed of, when the world wasn’t dreaming for her…
I didn’t get the chance with her, but I do now with my dad...and I will never take it for granted.
As we go into Fourth of July weekend, I wanted to share this little note... because when we heal ourselves, it’s not just about us…
It’s about the beautiful things that happen in the relationships that are closest to us.
My dad and I used to toast, tell jokes, and stay on the surface…never coming close to the depths of these three days.
It will always hold a special place in my heart.
So, wherever your freedom takes you this weekend...whether it’s fireworks, barbecues or quiet moments at home...
Get to know the ones who love you... not just their stories, but their soul...
Because we never know what tomorrow holds.
And love is what true freedom is all about.
Happy 4th of July, family 🇺🇸💫
Thank you for being on this journey with me.
With light always,
Jessica 🌹
