Giving for Living

We are trading giving for living: viewing the season and our energy through a sustainable lens.

Each December, we strive to defy physics, to be the first person doing five different things in ten different places. To be at home, work, with friends family, resting, cooking, shopping, swimming, enjoying, the list goes on.

Our year of conscious living and intention for balance can feel like a faded memory, but we are trying something different this Christmas.

We are trading giving for living: viewing the season and our energy through a sustainable lens. Fill up your cup. Gifts bring joy but are best complements to what feeds us most this time of year - being together.

Just be together in processing another complex year. Let the community lift us so that we can, in turn, raise it. Go in search of those who need it, want it. Give it for free and in excess.

Slow down in this race to the year's end.

Relish the in-between moments, those passed along a long table, sitting side by side on the couch, or balls flying in the backyard.

Give what you can and take what you need.
Show appreciation and spread light as far as the eye can see.

To you and yours, Lightly wishes you a merry Christmas and a happy Holiday.

Thank you once again for your support.
Cindy-Lee.
