Skiing into 2008

Isn't it wonderful that the start of a new year always feels so full of promise, so brimming with opportunities to be better and to do better, to eat and drink more mindfully, be kinder to loved ones, to be less selfish and/or self-focused? A new energy seems to be available at this time when we're still journeying through the thirteen holy days and night of the Christmas season.

Having prepared my home and heart to welcome guests and loves ones from near and far, something begins to mature and take on form, bringing me a glimpse or two into the heavens, some insights and intuitions that will help me slide into the months ahead with new impetus and purpose.

And somehow I find the deep midwinter helps the process.

So I wish you all much good will for 2008.
