A Letter to my WARRIORS



Happy Christmas Evening, Warriors!

As Mare drives our "sleigh" home from her Dad's house near Bethlehem, PA, we are all taking in the beauty of the shimmering Holiday lights and decorations. I just Love this time of year.  It's a celebration of Light, Giving and Gratitude at the heart of it all; and, when it seems that others have forgotten, it is our opportunity to put our Sati practice to use and BE that Light.

I admit, I struggle with that. A lot. Even in the struggle, though (thanks to the intenSati practice AND Sati Life Warrior training), I find an increasing awareness and recognition when I am out of Integrity with my desired attitude.  Sometimes, I even make a conscious shift from "grumpy pants" to "bringer of Jollity". Sometimes, I fall flat on my face, only to recognize a wee bit after the fact that I could have made very different choices.
My point?
My point is, it's all part of the practice. We are all on a journey, and somehow our paths have crossed through this practice of intenSati. This all comes to mind for me tonight on the twilight of Christmas as I am reflecting back over a season with different meanings for many different people.  This is a time of year that brings out the best and, sometimes, not so much the best in all of us.  No matter our individual Holiday affiliation, though, throughout this Season, there is a feeling of recognition that buzzes through the air.   It's a recognition of mutual excitement, of stress, of joy, of frustrations and childlike giddiness.  I don't know about all of you, but I found this year to be unique. Time seemed to accelerate and before I knew it, it was the last day of Hanukkah, then the amazing celebration of the Winter Solstice on a much anticipated date of 12/21/12, then in the blink of an eye, Christmas has arrived and draws to a close and 2012 will be soon to follow!

My year, like that of many of yours, I'm sure, has been filled with ups and downs, twists and turns, blessings and recognition of shortcomings, and the recognition that each of us truly matters!

The highlight of my year (aside from the near daily joys of parenting and the amazing accomplishments of the DestinyArts crew) has been the practice of intenSati and becoming a Leader of this life changing program.   I could go on for pages about the shifts, large and small, that have come about for me. Suffice it to say, I feel invigorated and empowered in ways I have never before experienced.

I AM so grateful to all of YOU who have chosen to share even a moment of YOUR journey with me. Whether it has been one class, many classes, or even an intention to attend a class, you have blessed me with your beauty.
Thank You.

I wish you all continued Joy and Blessings and I encourage you to fully activate and embrace your Heart's desires.  All you need IS within You NOW!

I will be at DestinyArts this week for classes during the following times:
Wed. 7pm (tomorrow!!)
Fri.   6:30pm
Sat.  9:30am
Sun. 8:30am
This IS the on going schedule.  I hope to see you ALL very soon!!

Love and Light to you all!
