“Play is the exultation of the possible.”― Martin Buber
“Christmastide (December 25 – January 5) is about the gradual departure of darkness and the gentle dawning of light at Epiphany. We don’t have to cram all of Christmas into one day. At Christmastide, we shed the pressure of “the holidays” and how we always do things, and take on a new, relaxed rhythm of celebration. Kinder. Quirkier. Gentler.” – Kate Bowler
The gentle dawning of light unfolding.
In slowing.
In playing.
In savoring.
In lingering.
In wandering.
In allowing.
In being, not mere doing.
Enter a relaxed rhythm.
And, of course, dance.
Joy. Hope. Wonder. Awe.
Today and each day, even slivers will do.
Happy Christmastide.
“Time is a game played beautifully by children.” (and dogs) ― Heraclitus, Fragments
