Winter’s Welcome

Posted by karynhenleyauthor

Winter welcomes,

beckons,

invites us to

pause

on the brittle brink of the year,

witness

the shimmer of the season,

listen

for undertones of time passing

on icy tiptoe,

breathe

the crisp air.

Drink all of it.

Deeply.

Deeply grateful.

– kh –

Wishing you peace and grace in the new year!

Nurture peace, cultivate kindness, and carry the calm.

Almost enchanted after all.”

The Dancing Breath of God

Posted by karynhenleyauthor

“I talk of branches dancing in the wind

but what I mean is the breath of God.”

– Rumi –

Feel the wind. Listen as it tiptoes past in a whisper, or waltzes with swaying branches, or twirls like an ice skater, scattering sparkles of frost in wild abandon. Watch. Listen. Feel the breath of God.

Nurture peace, cultivate kindness, and carry the calm.

Mirth, Cheer, and Serenity

“Mirth is like a flash of lightning, that breaks through a gloom of clouds, and glitters for a moment; cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, and fills it with steady and perpetual serenity.” – Joseph Addison –

Wishing you mirth, cheer, and serenity in this season!

Nurture peace, cultivate kindness, and carry the calm.
