🌸 A Million Thank You’s — A Beginning in Gratitude

 

There’s a quiet kind of courage in starting over.

For me, that beginning came not with a plan or a grand vision, but with two simple words: thank you.

Today marks the official launch of my new book, A Million Thank You’s — a collection of reflections on gratitude, healing, and the art of noticing life as it unfolds.
This book grew out of some of the hardest and most transformative seasons of my life — a traumatic brain injury, loss, and the slow rediscovery of what it means to be fully present.

The Moment Gratitude Found Me Again

One morning, years after the accident, I realized that I had drifted away from gratitude. Not intentionally, just quietly — the way we lose touch with old friends. That day I began saying thank you again, out loud, for anything and everything: the morning light, the sound of rain, the resilience of my own breath.

What began as a small ritual soon became a lifeline — and eventually, a book.

Why I Wrote A Million Thank You’s

I didn’t set out to write a self-help book or a memoir. I wanted to create a space where others could find stillness, reflection, and maybe a little hope. Gratitude isn’t about pretending life is perfect — it’s about remembering that beauty still exists inside imperfection.

The writing of this book mirrored my own creative process as a painter: layers upon layers, mistakes turned into texture, and moments of clarity emerging through the mess. Each chapter is a reminder that we can choose awareness over fear, softness over resistance, and presence over pressure.

A Thank You to You

If you’re reading this, you are already part of this journey. Whether you’ve followed my art, connected with my story, or simply stumbled across these words — thank you.
Your presence here matters.

This book is an offering — to anyone who has ever had to rebuild, reimagine, or rediscover themselves. To those who are learning to say thank you again, even when it feels impossible.
