Hello friends,

I wish you joy and peace this holiday whether it is Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, or another tradition of your country or culture.

What matters, is taking a moment to reflect and commit to bringing kindness and celebrating what binds humankind and our relationship to the natural world around us.

If you regularly read this newsletter, you know I’m a collector of quotations and an avid music lover. I also have an affinity for the number three.

As 2022 draws to a close, I have one last gift for you, my faithful readers, and anyone who may have stumbled across my musings. Three sets of three to add more wonder, and joy, or bring a smile to lighten the weight of the world.

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words and never stops at all. —Emily Dickenson

You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. —Ralpoh Waldo Emerson

We need to pay attention. Really pay attention. Lest we become blind to the awe and wonder that fills our days. —Marcus Borg, Days of Awe and Wonder

Keep looking for wonder, and I will be back on January 7, 2023.

With gratitude,

Kathryn
