Since it is a week before Christmas, I wanted to share some articles regarding the holidays.
One of the things I have learned in the past few months is the power of blessing people
Here is a blessing I wrote for the Christmas season. I hope you enjoy it.

Here is a blessing I wrote for the Christmas season. I hope you enjoy it.
May you not be trapped
by gaudiness and feasting.
May you sleep well, knowing
what does and does not matter
May you delight in the lights and
laughter.
May you hear the singing of carols
and the ringing of church bells
and know their meaning and message
May you stand outside
the circle of obligation
and give up following the crowd
finding solace in the season.
May you gather under starlight,
invited by God’s angels
to stand beside the manger
to partake in the Gift of infinite love.
And may you (if only
for this one evening)
experience stillness and beauty
of this singular and silent night.
