It’s a universal need, it seems. We can feel it in our bones, if we are paying attention. The Winter Solstice is celebrated in so very many traditions. Dwali, Hannukah, Advent … and it’s movement towards Epiphany. We are in the dark this time of year, and our religious traditions invite us to remember that we aren’t stuck here … the Light is coming. And NOW is the time to celebrate it’s re-entrance!
What does that look like for YOU this year? Something to give thought too, for what we focus on expands, as Abraham’s Law of Attraction promises. We need to condition our eyes to look for it. “Wait for it … WAIT for it,” as a friend of mine often quips. The Light is coming. The availability of Covid vaccines (at least the start of distribution for those deemed most in need)? Your workplace is finally finding it’s rhythm and calling you back to work? The scientifically endorsed idea that we may be able to start towards ‘normal’ (or at least be somewhat beyond the current context of mass susceptibility to the Covid virus) come next fall/winter? What do you look forward to at this time?
You might have to dig deep. You had time to clean out the cupboards and you’re more organized than you ever thought possible? You’ve found, after plenty of kurfluffles, that you actually LIKE hanging out with your teenage children … and more importantly they LIKE hanging out with you? Maybe your priorities are super clear and you’ve had plenty of time to practice saying “NO!” to imagined, unwelcomed invitations?
Look for the light. Wait for it … WAIT for it … here it is!!
