  • Today is World Kindness Day 🌎💖⁣
⁣
Listen- it’s 2020. Something in these recent days, weeks and months have surely made you believe kindness has disappeared. ⁣
⁣
Kindness is a simple, yet extraordinary, act. It’s a way to pause in our swirl of busy and come outside ourself to see or serve someone else. ⁣
⁣
We keep busy to avoid these questions: ⁣
Am I loved? ⁣
Does someone see me? ⁣
Do I matter? ⁣
Am I safe? ⁣
⁣
The list goes on. But today, you can be the person who sees someone. Who tells them they matter. Who shows them regard and love. ⁣
⁣
Kindness is love in action. ⁣
⁣
How will you share kindness today? ⁣
⁣
(The photo is a kindness my daughter showed to me today: a cup of Earl Grey tea with some walnuts for snack, set up so lovely.)⁣

  • N A T U R E 🍂 W A L K 🧡 An unseasonably warm day in Maine called for time outside. Tree-climbing, branch-swinging, leaf-catching, water-wishing, and hawk-finding was just the break we needed from the short, dark days of November. #naturewalk #novemberinmaine #1000hoursoutside #newenglandfall

  • ::Monday Meditation:: A Blessing⁣
⁣
With open eyes, draw us near to your creation, Lord.⁣
Revive our hearts.⁣
Recreate our world.⁣
Light the dark.⁣
Let us preach a gospel⁣
With no words, just beauty.⁣
The golden leaves clinging;⁣
The rays of rainbow sunlight illuminating,⁣
The song of birds,⁣
The form of flower.⁣
The laughter of a child...⁣
Dwell with us that we might be Visible.⁣
Love embodied. ⁣
Help us see others seated at the table,⁣
Smiles alight, feast prepared, ⁣
Hearts with no fright. ⁣
(By Jessica Briggs)⁣
