Rounding the corner toward Christmas, anticipating family coming to visit, and connecting virtually with those who can’t be here, I am thinking about how much I have to be grateful for. Yes, I published my first book, which makes me feel blessed. But as I’ve said many times, without loved ones to share the accomplishment, the experience would lose much.
I’m looking forward to taking a break from book matters, shifting my focus to family and food, fires at the pit and fireplace, watching my favorite holiday movies, and doing my best to keep my two adolescent kitties from tearing apart our beautiful Christmas tree.
I have several friends who are struggling during this holiday season for several reasons, health, loss, etc. They are keeping me mindful of how precious each unencumbered moment is. I wish my friends the strength to keep putting one foot in front of the next and faith in the future to deliver peace.
For all those who are healthy and doing well, may you be present in each moment to receive its gifts. The most important ones typically aren’t wrapped in paper or bows.
The last few days, I have been finding my joy in the skies, the full moon a few mornings ago setting early out my windows, and today the most beautiful clouds adorning my drive to the market.
Thank you, loved ones and strangers alike, who are now reading my posts. I appreciate each of you. I wish you well throughout the holidays and beyond.
Update: my interview scheduled for the 19th on KFOK was canceled due to illness. We are hoping for next Sunday, the 26th, at noon, but there is a snow forecast in Georgetown, so that date may also cancel. I will post any changes that morning on FB @waywardyogini. If weather permits, you can listen to the interview streaming live on their website, KFOK.org.
