This long-awaited new year - 2021 - dawns, infused with our most timid hopes and wildest dreams.
Three hundred sixty five days,
8,760 possibility-infused hours.

We all offer up our heartfelt hope that we can travel, embrace loved ones, see strangers’ faces, expect health and security, kindness and civility.

In January
Let your fields lie fallow, for seeds must rest before life returns.
Pause your busyness to
Dream. Imagine. Plan.
Rest and refill your cup.
"Timid hopes and wildest dreams" - very nicely phrased, Cynthia. All the very best for 2021.

ReplyDeleteDear Cynthia, thank you . . . and thank you for your Christmas posting. I so need to reach out and try to understand the majority of President Trump's followers--not the White Nationalists and Qanon and anarchists--but those who simply have been caught up in the web of his lies. I need to truly see them in Oneness. And you reminded me of that with your Christmas posting. Thank you again. Peace.
ReplyDeleteNice collection of photos Cynthia.
ReplyDeleteInteresting fungus and one can see why it's called Turkey..
