Today, Katie would be 38. We have officially reached the age where she’s been gone as long as she was alive. Every year has been different in the healing process. Everyone who has supported @katiesartproject, you have helped shape her legacy by giving children facing a life cut short the gift of art so they can leave theirs. Thank you. Happy Birthday Katie, ♥️

We need our friends now more than ever.□ — Had the opportunity to redesign Season Two of the ‘What Are Friends For Podcast’(@waffpodcast) hosted by @gabrielleruiz and @pallavisastry. They believe, “meaningful, and sometimes uncomfortable, convos are a way to a less polarized and more empathetic society.” — Give them a follow if you feel so inclined. □ No new episodes yet. Keep donating to #blacklivesmatters — Thank you @pallavisastry and @gabrielleruiz for bringing me onto the project. □□ (and thank you @keertanaks for recommending me!! □) — □ Art, branding, animation by me

More loves on a Sunday...

A post shared by Tanya Saracho (@tanyasaracho) on Aug 2, 2020 at 8:16pm PDT

2020 has been a lonely, confusing whirlwind. But amid the COVID-19 crisis, Tanya Saracho has found safe, socially distant ways to continue to connect with her dear friends and loved ones. 

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson
The 5 Values Author Mark Manson Encourages You To Have:
  • Choosing to be responsible for whatever happens in your life, even if it’s not your fault (you can choose how you respond to things.)
  • You are always wrong, and growth comes from being a little less wrong each day.
  • Embrace failure because success is based on how many times you’ve failed at something. You only learn when you fail.
  • Say NO; commit to something (an activity, person, place etc.). To truly appreciate something, you must commit yourself to it.
  • Remind yourself that death is imminent and you must work towards something bigger than yourself — your legacy, your imprint on this world.
