“The Purple Pen” is not just an ordinary writing instrument; it is a symbol of my mom's love, strength, and unwavering belief in me. In times of doubt and despair, I could always count on my mom's words to inspire and uplift me whether she spoke them or wrote them in an encouraging note or letter with her purple pen.
My mom was my biggest cheerleader. She had the unique gift of making me believe that I could conquer anything and that I was capable of achieving my wildest dreams. My mom's words were etched in my heart and mind; and have served as a guiding light throughout my life. So here I am embarking on this new adventure - one that was deeply and visually inspired by my mom's legacy. I decided to create a space where people could come together, discover treasures from the past, and experience the beauty of nature that screams her spirit. It's a business but it's also a tribute to my mom, to the love that always surrounded me and still does. My journey hasn’t been easy, but I know that if my mom were here, she would be overjoyed. I can see her excitement now in my dreams, feel her unwavering support, and her belief that I could turn this dream into reality. So, in honor of my mom and everything she meant to me, I call it “The Purple Pen.”
It's more than a name it's a symbol of the love, encouragement, and power of belief that my mom instilled in me. It's a way of keeping my mom's memory alive and sharing the remarkable influence she had on my life and still does.
And so “The Purple Pen” will continue to unfold. I hope that it is a testament to the enduring bond between a mother and her child, the strength that love and belief can bring, and the power of honoring the ones we hold dearest in our hearts. I pray that when you are out and about and see a purple pen or attend a Purple Pen event, it will be a beacon of hope and inspiration, and through “The Purple Pen”, it reminds you of the extraordinary influence that love can have on her child and those around you!
