A Pause

Dear Friends,

This past weekend I unexpectedly had both my boys home.  On Saturday afternoon we randomly decided to hop in the car and go down to DC to the botanical gardens to see the holiday train display before it closed up for the evening.

As we were driving away from said gardens, we noticed a phenomenal sunset in the making.  We flipped around and parked, got out and watched as the sky deepened into reds, pinks, yellows and oranges all around us.  This sunset was an absolutely and utterly spectacular display of colors.

This is the time of year, this time when life is a little colder, as we approach the shortest and darkest day of the year…it is the time of year when our bodies and minds would like us to take life a little slower, a little less rushed.

I don’t know about you, but slower has never been my lived experience this time of year.  Life feels fuller and faster.

But whether you’re able to take life a little slower, and a little less rushed, or whether your experience is fuller and faster and a bit more frenetic then you would prefer, I think we can all find spaces to pause, to stop, to notice and to watch a beautiful sunset when the opportunity presents itself.

My dear friend, whether your season is fast or slow, I hope you are able to take some pauses.

Have an amazing week.

Love
Krista
