"That the most ordinary moments and actions can be a gateway into the sacred. And, that myths, archetypes, images or symbols, and journeys hold great relevance even (especially) in contemporary times." Particularly nice, Priya. Happy New Beginnings and Solstice to you!

what i've learned? hmmmm.

change is inevitable, so is the journey.

you cannot control the change but you can control parts of the journey.

learn from the change to ease the journey.

change is unstoppable, it's happening all the times, so it's the journey.

happy holidays!

Over the years, I have learned that change is easier to encourage and support in others … it is so much harder to unearth the need in oneself and address it.

Barrie, Happy 2025! My experience of almost the last decade has been one of intense change and I am hoping 2025 is more low-key.

Happy 2025 to you too, Priya. Wishing for all the ‘low key’ you can handle. I’m seeing lovely words for the year ahead like ‘fallow’ (Luisa Skinner wrote a lovely piece about her plans for ‘less’ of a whole bunch of things).

Fallow sounds great! I'm also dipping into the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig and finding new words for old feelings.

Sounds interesting. I’ll have a peek at that title. 🙏

Change besides coins in a fountain is evaporation. It happens but you cannot see it. Then the rain comes to start all over again.

Agreed change is usually slow.

It is those little steps and moments that add up over time. It might feel like nothing’s happening, but looking back, you’ll see how far you’ve come. Thanks for this reminder, Priya.
