Be a Beacon of Light 

  We are in a time of remarkable transitions & changes in our country & in the world. For each of us, it is staggering to sit with all that has transpired in our country within the last two weeks. The ramifications & uncertainty can leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed & fearful. These times call us to daily choose Love over Fear. 

I am committed to staying awake, aware & engaged. I am also committed to staying grounded, peaceful & rooted in Love as much as I can. Further, I am committed to be more open & courageous to truly listen & dialogue with others whose opinions are different than mine to manifest more understanding & compassion. (Part of this also includes pausing, noticing when I shut down & when I am not skillfully listening. Then, I can take a breath & try again.)

May we each take time to care for ourselves & our families. May we remember that we are a country committed to love, kindness, compassion & to helping those in need. In honor of my ancestors  and ALL of our immigrant ancestors, may we remember & live the  words inscribed at the b ase of the Statute of Liberty:

 "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
The New Colossus,   Emma Lazarus


May we remember the value & importance of our individual contributions. May we remember our capacity to be a Beacon of Light each day to bring more love, peace, justice & compassion into our world. May we consciously & daily choose Love over Fear.
