"Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen."
- Brene Brown
Courage doesn't always look dramatic.
Today, it is simply beginning. Knowing I won't do this perfectly and starting anyway.
Sometimes that's enough.

fascinating orange roses
These pretty framed flowers and leaves are designed by Nana Takahashi aka Nanahoshi, and folded and styled by me.
I am definitely fascinated by the elegant folding sequence of these roses, in idle moments my fingers start folding them all by themselves!
Full disclosure - Chat GPT helped me with this "product photo". In real life, the frame is flatter but the roses really are that dimensional and pretty!
