The Blessings of this Holiday Season

Lovendures · 2020-12-24T06:32:29Z

Christmas is nearly here and the New Year is fast approaching. As the year 2020 enters its final days, I find myself thinking of the meaning of Christmas and all that has occurred this eventful year. I am so grateful to be here among you, among the living and breathing and among this community of lighter workers and friends. In the year 2020, these words have great significance and meaning. We have weathered many storms together, faced our mortality, our fears and ourselves. We have stared deeply into the mirror and found the stuff of which we are made. We have discovered our true strengths and weaknesses. We have learned how to love fiercely from a distance, show compassion to strangers, find humor in the incomprehensible and comprehend the bizarre. We have seen the light rise on a new dawn and found miracles of hope answer our prayers. We have learned to trust our intuition more, and ask for help when needed. We may be exhausted and battered, but we are here today. Together. No one knew what would unfold when 2020 began, but together we stand taller and wiser. We have survived everything thrown at us. Some of us have lost dear family members and friends, others our sense of normalcy and peace. Some of us have felt isolated and alone as never before. But we have also gained a great deal. We have gained an understanding of what is important, of how to be better humans, the reality of the inequalities and injustices our brothers and sisters have endured and continue to endure. We have found creative ways to stand up for what is good and right. We have thrown light at darkness, called out evil and discovered angels guiding us onward. We have re-discovered our democracy is fragile and worth fighting for. We have found that we can make a difference and that we are not alone. We have embrced love to lift us higher As 2020 comes to it's final chapter, I am honored to be here at this time during this particular history of earth. I am honored to be here with all of you in a loving and caring community created by our dear Jeanne. May we continue to be the lighthouses on the stormy sea coasts, those beacons of hope guiding each other when we are lost and frightened, guiding us to safer harbors, guiding us lovingly home. May we feel the peaceful calm of a light filled dawn, the promise of a new beginning and all the wonderful possibilities those promises hold. I wish for everyone peace, love and hope. May all of us enter 2021 as firebirds rising from the ash of 2020 and soaring above it to new wondrous heights. May our community continue to be a blessing next year and for many years to come. Merry Christmas and Happiest of New Years.

That bird (and the article) made me and my hubby smile! We both love birds (angels and birds are encompass most of the ornaments on my tree). Thank you dear Jeanne!
