When you get the chance to make magic in the snow, When you get the chance to make magic in the snow, even in your own front yard, even if no one might see it, even though the sun is getting busy melting your creation. 

None of that matters. Being silly as a kid matters. Making yourself grin matters.

Social distancing on the socially-prescribed day o Social distancing on the socially-prescribed day of love, top of Van Cott. Wire and 3 foot drifts, you're next!

Also don't worry, this is my decompression from some of the heavier amazing stuff I write about. It's all me. I serve, I learn, I embody.

See this sparkle? It helps me to illuminate what I See this sparkle? It helps me to illuminate what I already know to be true: that I have gifts, that I have excitement, that I have ability to serve. 

And even as that sparkle helps me to remember what is true, it is a beacon for YOU. It is a beacon to those who also know: even if you are still growing and healing that you are whole. You were always the whole you, even if you is evolving and blossoming. A seed is still Whole. A sprout is Whole. In the mighty oak tree… Also Whole. 

See this light? It's here. Now let's see yours. I know you have it. 😘🔮

This is a reminder to myself. This is a reminder t This is a reminder to myself. This is a reminder to plant strange seeds. To plant them, to tuck them in, and to wait.

there are already a few, deep inside me. But that doesn't mean there can't be more, all waiting for just the right moment when the conditions are wiggly and the humus is fertile.

Let your tree roots grow deep, winding a path deep Let your tree roots grow deep, winding a path deep into the earth. Let your branches reach high.

And above all, let your light illuminate and reflect off anything that is around, drenching the view in vibrance.

There is a moment when the first steps must be tak There is a moment when the first steps must be taken. Even if the snow is deep, the first steps must be taken.

Indeed to move forward, the first steps must be taken. Those steps begin to establish motion and direction. And once they are there they also begin to trace a path. The path that becomes easier the next time. The path that sets an example. The example of positive first steps.

And yes the first steps are hard. There's fear. But nothing amazing ever starts easily. The first steps must be taken. And when there is someone there with love to hold space for those first steps, that is where real magic can happen.
