Seattle sunrise, late 2016 |
The light is coming back.
I've started a few posts here over the past six weeks, only to leave them as drafts. So much is unsettled and upsetting in our world. There's not a lot I might write to change that, and even acknowledging our collective uncertainty and angst seems empty.
But I do know this is a time to choose light.
Light is the opposite of dark. When we are pushed to assume the worst of another, can we choose instead to affirm each other's humanity?
Light is an alternative to burden. When we are implored to weigh ourselves down with possessions and debt and guilt, can we choose another path?
A new year starts a week from now. For 2017, may I choose lightness as a state of mind and a way of being in the world.
