No matter what we have faced in our lives, my loves… joy is always there, waiting for our arrival.

From where we can, we must return – and this is our return to home,  effected through the sense of wonderment and courage.

Whether the sound of rustling leaves, or the scent of fresh biscuits rising for dinner – we are continuously reminded of this invitation to be made whole.

“Live in joy,” the Buddha teaches. And with this, we must learn to step away from our fear – however briefly – to honor the prospect of our own renewal.

Yes, we need to navigate with grace and dignity; to the self within, and the self that is world. This temple surrounds no matter our worry.

In the end, only our mantra – ‘we are, we are’.

In peace, my sweet friends – Happy Christmas and blessings to all.

Namaste ❣️
