When you ask December for something, ask it to bring you gifts that aren’t sold in stores: a ‘I really like you’, a ‘thank you for existing’, an ‘I’m here for you, always’.
When you ask December for something, ask that it bring you tight hugs, loud laughs, the lap of the one you love the most, hands held all year round, shoulders that hold you, hearts where you can live without an expiration date.
When you ask December for something, ask that it bring you eyes that shine for you and for you, words that protect and take care of you like the sun on cold days, the little nothings that are worth everything in life, the essential that occupies, without regret , the left side of the chest, and the leaven of joy that makes life worthwhile.
When you ask December for something, ask that it teach you to live with an open heart and to believe – without but – that there is a light at the end of the tunnel for every darkness you have to face.

maybe, just maybe, everything is ok today….
inquiry for today~ what do you cherish in this season of light?
To be alive in this beautiful, self-organizing universe — to participate in the dance of life with senses to perceive it, lungs that breathe it, organs that draw nourishment from it — is a wonder beyond words.
