this time of year is one of my favorites.
it holds a lot of meaning from my childhood, in that it means family coming together after months apart to celebrate life and each other and all the fun things we’ve done and accomplished since last we spoke.
it means that the days are getting shorter as we near the winter solstice, reminding us to take time to rest and relax and it’s okay if a task didn’t get done, it’s a problem for tomorrow.
it’s a reminder that with every cycle’s ending, there’s also a beginning and while sometimes we aren’t looking forward to it, change is a good thing and keeps us from becoming complacent.
i, myself, have been dealing with a lot of change during the last quarter of this year and not all of it has been good, but because of it, i feel like i’m stepping more into who i am and who i want to be, and that’s kind of the whole point, isn’t it?
this time of year is a reminder to slow down, enjoy some comforts, and open your mind to the idea of change so that when it happens?
you’re ready to receive whatever the universe has in store for you.
i know i am.
are you?
i hope you all have the very best time this yule season, with family, friends, and those you hold dear.
be safe. be well. be kind.
