Dear Gentle Reader-
I wish for you a peaceful heart this holiday season. This wish I realize is a rather tall order for us humans to achieve especially during this season that promises much and often falls short in so very many ways.
This season we can make the choice to look at everyone and everything through our heart’s eyes.
My wise heart knows that each one of us adds a uniqueness to the harmony of nature and each event or thing that occurs is there for a reason beyond which I have the ability to see.
I don’t however always keep my hearts eyes open. And as a result, I become heavy hearted in the midst of events and people and just life around me.
We can choose to open our hearts time and time and time again, to the reality that we are all imperfect beings deserving of the grace we need to be just as imperfect as we in deed are. And, we can take heart knowing that this includes our very own self too!
We can choose to have a big heart in the face of life’s imperfections. And out of this kindness of that heart of ours we will actually be able to experience peace living in moments of harmony with the world around us!
May you warm your heart with acceptance of all that is just as it unfolds this holiday season!
With all my heart I wish this for you!
Jude
