This morning, I woke up inspired to finally get moving on here. I have started putting together the framework for a new Substack, The Hope Keepers. I am still figuring out the mechanics, so if anyone has resources for me, I am all ears. I had tried this a few months ago, with a different concept, but I couldn’t quite get started. I am smitten with my new idea, however, and am excited to share once I get rolling. And new fact I learned: Cardinals are most associated with Hope and Resilience. As a birder, I love this tie-in. And my recently deceased mom would also appreciate.
