To A New Year of Grace

12/28/2025 by Aruni

To A New Year of Grace

 

No Matter What is Happening

As the New Year opens her arms for us, as the light returns, as the daylight stretches wider and longer, as the sun makes her way back to us—

Dear Friends,

For all that we have been given,

Hallelujah.

We are blessed.

For all that has been taken from us,

Hallelujah, eventually,

Help us to see the inevitable blessings.

For what might be in this wildly wacky world of ours,

Help us to find our way,

One step at a time.

May we walk with kindness,

Inch by inch.

When we can.

May we look around and receive the blessings,

Breath by breath.

When we can.

And when we cannot,

May we return to the arms of kindness,

Settle on it,

And just keep breathing.

Dear Friends,

To a New Year of love, of light,

Of kindness and connectivity.

To a New Year of Grace.

May all beings benefit from our time together.

~~~

Here is the perfect song for this moment, lovely and celebratory. Thanks, dear Erika, for singing it all day. And always, for sharing so much with me.

Here is the Solstice Carole

By the Wyrd Sisters.

 

 

All blessings,

Aruni
