This reminds me of the warmth and home of scrapbooking. I absolutely love the idea of a good things jar!

I certainly need to know that things can be good again. Most of the year has been 29 shades of shit. This is a good way of assessing that there might have been some good in it. Somewhere.

You've just given me the best idea for Christmas for my family and friends. I'm going to give each of them a good things jar! What a wonderful gift you give yourself. Recognizing that there are so many good things each day and each year will surely help get past some of the difficulties we face. Thank you for this!

I really loved this piece, and the visual imagery of collecting life’s joyful moments… in objects, but also the routine of the practice. I’m a noticer- I like to pay attention to the so called little things. This is a beautifully written reminder to focus on the good. 💗
