May all the days ahead be Merry and Bright!

Here’s a hug for the new year.

Not the loud kind.
Not the rushed kind.
Just a quiet, gentle hug for everything you carried through this year.

For the days you were tired but kept going.
For the nights you held on longer than you thought you could.
For the moments you survived in silence.

As 2025 fades and 2026 begins, may you move forward softly.
May life meet you with kindness.
May your heart feel a little lighter than before.

You don’t need big resolutions.
Just peace.
Just warmth.
Just the reminder that you made it.

May the new year be gentle and kind to you. 🤍

Love this! I often have people stare at me in public and I think, do I have toilet paper stuck to my shoe….I don’t know why they’re looking at me so, I just smile. So often, they come to talk with me about my hair. Let’s get something straight right now, I do not love being white headed at 60 years old, it makes me feel old. I have massive allergy issues that have caused multiple trips to Boston to try to get them under control, so to knock down my chemical load, no hair dye for me. I get tons of questions about how I transitioned to grey, who colors my hair, if you can think of a grey hair related question, someone out in the world has asked it of me. I still show up in my dreams with brown hair. It’s crazy! So, while I’ve put this topic out there happy to answer questions if you are considering joining the no more dye club. 😬

Let’s be honest, I probably ate 1/2 of the package.

Beautiful advice!!!

December is National Giving Month, a time to celebrate compassion, generosity, and the simple acts of kindness that strengthen our communities. Dr. Maya Angelou believed deeply in the power of giving — not only materially, but also with love, time, attention, and care.

In her poem “Continue,” she reminds us: “Continue to be who and how you are, To astonish a mean world, With your acts of kindness”

Her words call us to recognize that giving is not limited to grand gestures. It lives in how we show up for others, how we speak life into one another, and how we carry hope into the spaces that need it most.

This month, we honor every person who gives — formally or quietly, publicly or behind the scenes. Your generosity uplifts, restores, and reminds us that we are more alike than unalike.

May we continue to give with open hearts and open hands, just as Dr. Angelou taught.
