Hello everyone.  I hope you are enjoying your holiday season.  This year has been full of highs and lows both in life and in personal energy.  Recently I went from zero to 100 with work and my body is calling for me to rest.  As I rest, one of the main thoughts that has surrounded me lately, during this time of family, friends and reflection, is growth.  This past weekend I attended a holiday party hosted by a new friend, I brought a new friend with me, and all new friends were in attendance.  These new friends are an example of my growth since they each represent new doors opened for me because I chose to say “yes and” to life and live my life differently.

In what ways have you grown this year?  During your personal reflection, may you find yourself just as blessed or as grateful for your growth, the new friends, experiences, perspective and skills that you have welcomed into your life.  Growth isn’t easy, it’s necessary.
