Happiness is not something you find. It's something you create. ✨

No achievement, relationship, or possession can permanently make you happy if you haven't chosen peace within yourself. 🌿❤️

When happiness comes from within, life's blessings become something you enjoy—not something you depend on.

Comment “CHOOSE HAPPINESS” if you resonate with this. 💭✨

Thank you everyone for the comments, messages, texts, and emails about The History of St. Francis. I have been overwhelmed by the response.

Many people have asked about purchasing a copy. The book is a 52-page softcover edition and will be available for $20 during my open studio event on Saturday, June 20, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at The Studio at 107.

I had originally planned to wait until Saturday to start selling books, but several people have already reserved copies.

Only 250 copies were printed in this first run, so I am holding off on mailing books until after Saturday to make sure I have enough copies available for reunion weekend visitors.

The photo below was taken in my favorite corner of the Cheyenne County Museum. Behind me are old newspapers, family files, letters, court records, and documents that have survived for more than a century. Many of the stories in this book began right here, hidden away in folders and boxes, waiting to be rediscovered.

Thank you again for your support. It has been a joy bringing these stories back to life.

God is ready to shower us with blessings, but we have to be the ones to prepare the soil!

Curious about how you can make sure your soil is ready? Watch this past weekend’s message, “Soil Readiness,” at newspring.org/harvest.
