As Christmas 2025 approaches and as 2026 begins to peek around the corner, I want to wish everyone much love, peace and joy in your lives now, and into the future!

So many of us around the world have experienced a very challenging and transformative year in 2025. Though overwhelming, we can still easily remember the many difficult and heartbreaking events that we have experienced and witnessed in both our own lives and in the lives of others.  Those of us who care deeply about the suffering of others and all living things, are feeling great sorrow near the end of this year for what could be and for what should be…..

And so, I would like to ask you to consider doing one thing tomorrow (or anytime between now and the end of this year):  please take a few moments, if you can, to escape into some peace and quiet and inner stillness within yourself.  While there, reflect back onto 2025, and remember the GOOD that you also witnessed and experienced in this chaotic year (because this, too, is deeply important!)….the people who lifted you up, and the people YOU lifted up! And then take some additional time to consider what is truly important moving forward! And, realizing that there are so many others in solidarity with you who are also wishing for something better and truer and more meaningful to become reality, create an uplifting image within you of what is needed, and then send it with love out into 2026!

I believe that 2025 has revealed to us collectively and individually, what deeply needs to be given our honest and focused attention! It has revealed what has been buried, what has been hidden, and what needs to be healed – some of which has been suppressed for a very long time! When things come to the surface, they can seem awful in the moment….but it is only in bringing to the surface what needs to be seen, that healing can truly begin!  2025 has shown us that there is A LOT to be seen and healed – personally and collectively! Our mission is being revealed to us!  Every one of us on the planet is here right now to witness what is broken, to heal ourselves, and to support others in their own healing. We are here to make a difference, and that difference begins first with our thoughts, which then manifest outward into the world as action!  Collectively, we are quite powerful!  Let us all commit to being the change that we are seeking!  And we can begin this process first, by sending out to 2026 our greatest intentions of love and support for one another!

I am so thankful to my blogging family, friends and followers whose posts and comments have sustained me, informed me, and inspired me throughout this difficult year we have witnessed and have walked through together!  You are important, you make a difference, and you matter more than you know!

Wishing you Happy Holidays in whatever way you enjoy or celebrate them, and I will see you in the New Year!
