Know that You Are.
You are stronger than you think
braver than you realize
and more loved than you know.

Wishing you all a safe and restful weekend.

On the Horizon [a poem]
By Cynthia Cady Stanton | Featured Contributor
There are times in life
when it feels as if
the horizon is all you have.
You want to be lifted
from your current shoreline
which has become rocky
and hard to navigate.
You have been in a season of loss
and your heart is wounded –
too much has changed for you.
A Cheerful Heart [a poem]
By Bernard Demaere | Featured Contributor
A cheerful heart does well to me
A cheerful heart will keep me strong
A cheerful heart will keep me long
A cheerful heart will keep a song
A cheerful heart does well to me
A Blessing of New Beginnings
Nourish beginnings,
let us nourish beginnings.
Not all things are blest,
but the seeds of all things are blest.
The blessing is in the seed.
-Muriel Rukeyser
◊
Wishing you all a beautiful first week in the new year.
May we take time to nourish this seed.

Let Us Do It Now
“I shall pass through this world but once.
If therefore, there be any kindness I can show,
or any good thing I can do, let me do it now:
let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”
-Etienne de Grellet
◊
Wishing each one of you love and happiness as we finish off this year.
