Happy December 24th, Mary. I was just feeling lost for a minute and very much alone. Then there you and others were here with a new page saying Merry Christmas and such. There are so many ways to be here with great feeling to go with our observations and thoughts. It has added much to my work and ability to focus. I hope for a new and honest time in our world, with a healthy and caring form of work with enough love to find the ability to give our time and input especially to learn.

I read this every morning to remind myself that someone is happy I’m here. Then I get out of bed.

Thank you, Mary. Christmas happens to be a terrible time for me, but I'm working on it. That sunset picture definitely helps! Thank you for your insightful voice all through this year, and I wish you and yours (okay, MOST of yours, lol!) the very best of the season. I take this time to remind myself that I Am Enough, A much easier sentiment to say than act upon, but I imagine so many people around the globe, mourning the losses of their loved ones, are having a much harder time than I. I will spend the day alone with my dog, and tomorrow I will go to Point Udall (arguably the eastern-most point of the US), and meditate on the year gone by, as is my now 6-year tradition. It is humbling, and yet connecting, in a strange way, and I take comfort in sitting there, taking in all the majesty of it, and reminding myself that all of our lives mean something to someone, and if we're still here, then there is still much to do. And so, we will, and there is a quiet beauty in that, I think. Be well, Mary, and all who are here. Best wishes from the Caribbean!!

Hi, Good Trouble. The holidays are tough for a lot of people at the best of times but after the last couple of years--well, let's just say I empathize. Your tradition is a lovely one. Give your puppy a pet for me.
