How I love our tropical North, especially this time of year.

We live in this amphitheatre of magnificent mountains where animals make their home, and from which life-giving waters flow.
Our Winter brings the cane harvest and my nostalgic reflections and appreciations take me to the time of our cane pioneers and the history this region evolved from.
And still...groaning engines and rattling carriages meander through our neighbourhoods while the earthy, sweet mill steam billows across our valley.
Once you've had a taste of the tropics how could you live anywhere else.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌴🍍 🐠
This journal reflection honours our home with appreciation and gratitude.

Before the year comes to a close, take some time for reflection... 😌

Release thoughts that don't serve you well, forgive what has hurt you, and immerse yourself in gratitude for the blessings that the past year has gifted you. 🙏🏼

The New Year will soon be upon us bringing hope and fresh opportunities to try new experiences, meet new people and follow your heart's desires.

Thank you for the part you have played in bringing light and love to my 2024.

In peace, love & kindness
Lisa Chirio
🕊️ 💚 🙏🏼

So what do you do with everyone's leftover paper strips?
Create your own Christmas Tree of course 🤩🎄🌟

16/12/2024

Our parents and kids came together for an end of year evening celebration. They created their Christmas project together by designing and painting their own Christmas paper, cutting it into strips, sharing those with the other parents and kids, then creating a collage Christmas tree.
The result was so beautiful.

Gratitude Journey Day 7-8 / 28

What a busy week!!!
Every night this week we're having an end of year celebration with the kids and their parents/grandies, and the adults.

The last two nights celebrations were for the Monday Juniors and the Tuesday Youth Kids. It felt so special to see kids creating alongside their parents - sharing ideas, colours, layouts, techniques.

I feel so grateful that these beautiful kids and their parents are in my life.
And I am grateful that I'm in a position to be able to host a happy 'end of year' celebration like this.
I often feel like I have the best job in the world. 🤗

🙏🏼 What is it about your job that has left you feeling grateful this year?

🙏🏼 What does having a job do for your life that you're grateful for?


I invite you to share this in the comments.

Gratitude Journey Day 6 / 28

For many of us our year begins with goals, intentions or resolutions.
Some come to fruition, others don't and that's ok because we never know how our year will unroll.

And sometimes an unexpected opportunity arises, and we can either embrace it or let it go.

🙏🏼 What planned or unexpected opportunity or project are you grateful to have run with this year?

I invite you to share this in the comments.
