The Star…

This is less of a draw and more of a wish for you. The star is a very integral part of the Christmas Story. Not surprising that it is at the forefront of this and many other holiday and religious celebrations, because it is a symbol of love, light, hope, and peace. Tonight, no matter how cold or snowy it is where you are, I encourage you to take a minute or two and step out into the night air and look up at the sky. You see, if you are feeling down, anxious, disappointed or lost, a glance at the sky can be enough to let you know you are not alone. Because of the crazy, inclement weather, many of us may not be able to gather with loved ones the way we planned to do. Take comfort and joy in the idea that somewhere they are looking up at the same night sky and wishing they could be with you. And, while we are all glancing up towards the light of the heavens, it may occur to us that the universe is so much greater than we can even comprehend and our individual light is needed to move the cosmos forward. The stars, after all, reflect back our own sparkle, as we are made of stardust. Collectively, we have faced so many challenges over the last few years, but yet, we continue to shine. I hope you find the love, light, hope and peace that the stars promise this year.
