When life gets lifey, we can make all kinds of choices. What if we keep it simple? What if we breathe? What if we trust that we can handle whatever it is we are facing? What if we begin with wonder and end with magic?

Life can get so lifey sometimes,

And when that happens,

It's easy to get caught up in all kinds of stories and fears,

Histories,

And it's easy to send a rabble of ornery badgers up our noses to add even more claws and teeth to the fight.

When life gets lifey,

I want us to kiss,

And I mean keep it simple,

Silly.

When life gets lifey,

Keep it simple,

Breathe in,

Breathe out,

Heal what is broken and know it's probably going to take some time.

Live widely,

Live deeply,

Live humanely,

Giving your energy vampires a garlic necklace,

Giving your wounds a My Little Pony band-aid,

Move,

Don't control,

Shine,

Even now,

Even here,

Know that we never arrive,

The way is all there is,

Practice making grace and hope and love your default buttons,

And know that life is change and love holds fear,

Whispering,

It's okay,

You are okay.

Let the energy of mystery guide you and trust your inner knowing as you keep it simple.

You are up to the task,

Follow the way that is yours and yours alone.

Feel tender,

Be true,

Begin with wonder and end with magic.

May you live light and shine.
