Thankful for the gifts of 2020!

Hello Beautiful Soul. I know I'm not the only one sensing a big difference in Thanksgiving this year, with all the restrictions and challenges we're all still facing. But hidden in between the hard times this year has brought, are priceless gifts we can be thankful for. Just like when we’re building muscular strength, growth in life can hurt. But what results from that pain can be life-changing.

When everything around us falls apart, the gifts hidden in the rubble become beautifully apparent. When the dust settles, we’re able to see the pieces more clearly, allowing us choose which pieces to pick back up - the ones that serve our highest good - and which to leave behind.

Not only does this allow us to rid ourselves of ideas, energy, habits and people that aren't good for us, it also gifts us clarity into what matters most. And that might very well be the most valuable gift of 2020. We’ve had countless moments this year when we’ve felt disappointment, but beneath the dust of all the chaos, what has shone through is a strength more powerful than we knew was inside us. So while 2020 continues to throw challenges our way, we're learning something immensely valuable: not only can we handle the challenges, we can thrive in spite of them.  

My Thanksgiving looks very different this year. My heart is sad that I can’t share a table with the people I love. But I'm thankful for technology that allows us to still make memories together. I’m thankful for the gifts I’ve unburied in the rubble this year. And I am thankful for you.

Happy Thanksgiving my friend. Jo xxx
