Wreath of Thanks and Giving

in blurtlife •  4 years ago 


In the weeks before Thanksgiving, the one in my heart, I piece together a wreath to hang on my door. Normally it would be there to greet the guests who would be coming to my house, and yet, like everything else in the abnormality of the past year, changes have been made and there will be no guests. Most everyone in the family will be in on a zoom meet up, preparing the feast as a group, We have decided to make this a fun day, despite the forced by circumstances separation. Sometimes the best times come quite unexpectedly.

It’s no secret around the familial circle that I love the charm of seasonal wreaths. Maybe it is the surreptitious meaning. Probably not. In my mind, it’s that circular shape that represents eternity, for it has no beginning and no end. The unending circle of life, if you will. There is a certain cozy feeling wrapped up in all that evergreen. It's simple and it makes everything simply delightful.

I cannot help but, be a little thankful this year. Undoubtedly, most of us give some thoughts to being grateful as the year winds down and we become reflective, especially as we come closer to Thanksgiving. I was pushed beyond what I thought was capable of me, in so many ways. I am happy to say that I watched many people step up to the plate and give of themselves, and then a little more. I am thankful for the strangers that I encounter through daily living. Their gifts ripple out upon the spiritual waters of the earth and uplift the bond of our shared humanity. People make my day. Yes, you and you and you...

I encourage you listen to the music in your heart and soft whispers in your soul, letting the moment cover you in a blanket of joy.

I don't know where it began, or if it will ever end; but I love putting wreaths on the inside doors of my house. I make a new wreath every year, using some of Mother Nature and some pieces of comfort and joy from the various stores that carry craft paraphernalia. When you need an instant feeling of Christmas, try this on for size.

Yes. May there always be a flower. #alwaysaflower
