We are still the lucky ones…the ones who can publicly disagree, say whatever we want to when wishing someone holiday greetings, give gifts…or not…be Scrooge…or not…. We are the lucky ones because we are living, breathing, alive today and able to make our own choices about how we move through this life. Be your own true self. That is where your strength and power and grace and joy lies. We learn this lesson the hard way, don’t we? But if we are really lucky…the lucky ones….we do, eventually, learn it. Live it. Be the change and all that.. There has never been a more interesting time to be alive than this moment. Because this moment is the only time in which we ever CAN be alive. Embrace the chaos, embrace the peace, find your center and be true.
