Holiday Wish
Take a deep....now breathe in and breathe out. Life can be a hard journey. It can be simple, and we can tend to make life complicated. It's all in the perspective of how we live...everyday. I am learning that the more we breathe in the less we breathe out. We should be breathing in, and breathing out a lot more. The holiday season is among us, and most of us are hustling and bustling to get the perfect gift, and not taking in the true meaning and sights that surround us. Tis the season to be jolly...and tis the season is to be happy. Though times are tough for many...lets take a moment to breathe in and breathe out the hope that encompasses our everyday life. Let's make a wish....not just the ordinary wish, the wish that only Jesus can grant us. The wish that is so instilled within our souls that only He can bestow. It's there and though we can't imagine how He would ever bring that wish to us, or allow the beauty to ignite that wish....still wish and know that there is a greater hope to which the holiday wish can be granted. So take a deep breathe...now breath in and breathe out....make your holiday wish....and trust that no matter what goes down this holiday season, that the joy, and the happiness of the sparkling lights will lift your spirits, that perfect gifts will be given, and even more importantly....the soul will be touched by the holiday wish being granted.

Something New
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. - Marcel Proust
Sometimes it is simple to say it's time for something new....and at other times it is really hard. It's hard of letting go of the familiar to embrace the thought of something new. Perhaps the hard part in letting go...isn't the thought that something new want come your way....but the simple fact that whatever does happen....won't be good enough, or sufficient enough to over ride what your letting go.
It's time...to let go...to start a new journey...to let what taught me in the past....feed me hope in the present....and give me light for my future.
It's not that we should forget, but it's about speaking the breath of life into the moments that I live....being a vessel who is willing to do what it takes to capture the newness of life on a daily basis.
So yes in this moment, it's hard to simply let go and trust that all with work out...but that's what faith and hope are all about. To let go....simply embrace the new.... and hope and pray that what comes one's way....will be nothing less than what the heart and soul could dream.
In this moment....it's something new...it's the adventure of peace...that will forever be etched on the heart....and for that I am ever grateful.
