Gift Giving 2023

South San Francisco, CA  November 20, 2023

Let your gift always be your presence –

unplug from devices

and plug into the incredible world around you

and those who bring peace to your life.

 

Let the RESET in your life start with your awareness of all that is around you.

 

Reconnect with nature – take the time to gaze upward at the winter skies and enjoy the dramatic sunrises, sunsets, and cloud formations all day long. Listen to the sound of the rain, feel it on your face, your skin, breathe in the cool air scented with petrichor and geosmin, it brings relief to your mind and your body, feel the warmth of the sun, the softness of your pet’s fur, the sound of the birds….. take the time, it’s yours, it’s free.

 

Reconnect with yourself – take the time to let your mind wander, color or doodle, daydream, stretch, move to music within, it’s good for your soul, calm your nerves, bring peace to your inner sanctuary within….. take the time, it’s yours, it’s free.

 

Reconnect your spiritual self –  take the time to read the good book, the Bible, start with John, the Gospels, move into the Old Testament, the Hebrew scriptures starting with Genesis, and learn the history of Yahweh’s creation and the early promises and examples that can fortify you during the challenges of today, read all of the New Testament, the Greek scriptures to better understand why we are here and what lies ahead …. take the time, it’s yours, it’s free. 

 

Reconnect with others – take that time to make that call, that visit, send out that handwritten letter, bring that homemade bowl of soup or flowers from your yard to your neighbor, make eye contact and truly smile at those you pass on the street, feel the connection with others…. take the time, it’s yours, it’s free. 

 

Reconnect with the whole of the world and not just the myopic view that reflects back from our screens – expand your world by living in it….. take the time, it’s yours, it’s free.

 

Unplug, reset, rejuvenate, reinvent, and rediscover, re-creation

….take the time, it’s yours, and it’s free.
