It's Not Time
Sunday, December 27, 2009
Yes Christmas is over. We are getting weary of our reheated tofu turkey, mashed potatoes, butter beans, congealed salads and pumpkin pie. We took our daughter to the airport and she is on her way back to her medical practice. We sit here with all the animals by the fire with the Christmas tree lights glaring, decorations on every table and the Christmas cards taped to the door trim. I wanted to take down all of the Christmas stuff but I just don‘t want this season to be over yet. I want to hold onto the smells, tastes, sights, sounds and feelings of this years holiday. It was just perfect in every way and now it is time to prepare to end 2009 and create goals and intentions for 2010. Like the wind, I am waiting for the new energy to blow in so I can experience the desire to take all of these memories down and put them carefully away into their boxes for this year. It‘s just not time yet. I will sit with the pure peace and love that I experienced this Christmas season. This Christmas, like s sleeping baby, I will tiptoe, take my time, and tenderly breathe in and out each moment so I don‘t wake up to end this magnificent dream.
