And Now...

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.

Wishing you Long Chats on the Telephone,
Sunshine and Blooming Flowers,
Yummy Popsicles,
and Freedom from Inhibition.
Happy Weekend, Everyone!

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.

New Year's Eve

Today I am wishing you this sort of celebration...

Pages scanned from a sweet little falling-apart children's book taken from my bookshelf.

Here's to a Grand New Year... see you on the other side.

Today, I Am Wishing for You...

a moment to reflect on the blessings in your life...

a feast, whether large or humble, eaten with gratitude...

warm toes, an inspired mind... and love.

If I Could

I would Curtain your windows with Cherry Blossoms.

and Spice your air with Hot Apple Pie.
