Metta = loving kindness

As the two week mark to departure continues to approach I find myself having similar conversations with my closest friends. All of them with kind words and heartfelt insights. Their kind words are ones of excitement but help keep me grounded - as I am still here, now. In Canada. I am thankful to be right where I am.
My Family. A topic of importance. Friend's insights remind me to be light, compassionate and kind when speaking with them about my travels.
In the whirlwind of working and planning I have remembered that it is hard for them to watch me go.
So this post is just to simply recognize you, my sweet family and friends for your loving kindness.
...and a very special mention to my mama for this picture and her inspiration for this post.
Metta,
Ashley.
