perched on a new year
may we land soft, hearts open
ready for healing
together-perched on the eve
of a bright new landscape;
have you ever been so relieved to watch a year
come to a close?
farewell
2020
you have crushed our hearts with immeasurable loss
and worldwide suffering.
may the sheer white edge of fresh beginnings
welcome us with comfort and compassion.
may we find a way to lift each other up
above the weight of life.
may we press each day to our hearts
and live fully, kindly, and gently.
may we cherish and protect this world we call home
and with compassion
open wide the doors to the house of belonging.
dear friends
i pray our new year
is holy and filled with light.
XO

Your blog has been an encouraging light in this past year of incomprehensible happenings and feelings. I look forward to another year with this light shining bright. Peace.

I think I see that holy light. Yes, it's still shining bright! Happy 2021 (finally!), Rebecca and everyone!

Rebecca's room. My shining light in a dark world. The door is always open, the warm light beckons. When I enter, I am at peace, always. Thank you for times past, for future comfort.
