A BAGGY COAT – A New Years Reflection


During this season of generosity swirling with obligation, of simple joy made sad by unmet expectation, of grateful abundance diminished by addictive excess, I'm trying on, once more, the baggy coat of acceptance, a garment whose fit depends on not its own but the wearer's measure.

         

What do you need to accept or let go of to allow the grateful, hopeful spirit of New Years wrap comfortably around you?

I’m with you Jeffrey!
We’ll be given many opportunities to accept what we’d rather not have come our way during the next few years. I hope we become discerning experts at it.

Thanks for commenting, Dan! Yeah, tough to balance the needs for both acceptance and resistance. I'm focusing on my Un-T, new Symbol of the American Resistance. Hope you'll check it out: https://unteeresistance.blogspot.com/
