A shiny new year stands before us,
full of what-ifs and maybes, hellos and open doors.
The old year may have been exquisitely beautiful.
It may have been painful or frustrating or full of failure.
Today is a fresh chance to leave the bad in the past,
stepping into a new promise.
A promise to forgive ourselves for what we didn't accomplish,
to forget what was done to us, to move beyond our doubts,
to invite freedom and grace and gratitude to walk beside us each day.
To carry the beauty, and allow the pain to forge and refine.
Its a brand new horizon.
Go forward, and with me, embrace grace.

Today...
No matter where you are, or who you are with (or not with)...
I wish you full hearts
and laughter,
bone-deep contentment
and hope for a tomorrow better than today.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Smile
Dear whoever is reading this, I hope you have a reason to smile today.
Not a token because-its-the-right-thing-to-do smile, but a genuine, felt-in-the-bones smile. Generated by true joy.
Because I know how that kind of a smile can turn an upside-down day
back the way it should be.
And because I like you.

If I Could...
I would fill your windows with sunshine
and make sure your day includes surprising encounters with love.

Merry Christmas
And if that isn’t enough, we also wish you
Music, fresh air, playful puppies,
flaky-crusted homemade pies,
and True Peace that you feel
in the very depths of your soul.

Happy Friday
Wishing you sunbeams and kitty cats.
If you need me, I'll be in the woodshed, battening down the hatches.
