So beautiful as always Devin. Thank you for being a constant source of insightful and uplifting thoughts this year. Happy Christmas and all the best for next year.

I’ll leave you with these two quotes:

May you have the gladness of Christmas which is hope;

The spirit of Christmas which is peace;

The heart of Christmas which is love.

– Ada V. Hendricks

“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.”

"What to do with that other than hold it? And remind myself of it as often as I can? Sometimes I forget. I’d like to forget less often." Amen. Merry Christmas, Devin--always a treat to read your writing!
