There's a trend circulating online right now where you share a picture or moment with a loved one, pet, or maybe even a picturesque view with the caption:

I almost forgot this is the whole point.

It's soft. It's powerful. And it spoke to me, so maybe it will speak to you.

Because honestly? It's easy to forget. With work deadlines, family dynamics, personal goals, side hustles, and unpredictable sleep…we can get swept up in everything we're trying to do, and lose sight of why we're doing it.

But this weekend, I experienced my own, I almost forgot this is the whole point moment.

I took Murphy to a dog beach for the first time. He ran free, tail wagging, ears flopping, fully alive in the moment, weaving through people and kids, chasing after new friends. I paused, feet in the ocean, sun on my skin, smiling, heart full, overwhelmed by how happy he was and how that moment reminded me of what truly matters.

I almost forgot…this is the whole point. Not the inbox. Not the to-do list. Not the pressure. But connection. Nature. Presence. Joy. Love.

Affirmation: I return to what matters. I create space for moments that fill my soul and remind me of life's true purpose.

This week, let's:

🐢 Slow down for even one meaningful moment.

✨ Let joy sneak in through the smallest cracks.

🎊 Remember that we're allowed to feel good now, not just when the to-do list is done.

Your life is not something you have to earn through productivity. It's already happening. Let's not miss the good stuff.
