QUOTE: "Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself."
- Harvey Fierstein

ACT: List five positive character traits you possess. Think of small, tangible ways you take them to the next level.

REFLECTION: Spotting strengths within our weaknesses is always a challenge.We're so quick to judge ourselves, criticize our flaws, and downplay our accomplishments.

I learned long ago that you can't give in to others' judgments or, even more likely, your own.

As we stand under the enchanting glow of the December Cold Moon, let us embrace the tranquility and guidance it offers. Through crystals, intentions, and mindful practices, we align ourselves with the rhythms of nature and the universe, inviting growth, wisdom, and transformation into our lives.

🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
May the Cold Moon illuminate your path and inspire your journey towards inner harmony and fulfillment.

Remember, the magic of the Cold Moon resides not just in its celestial presence, but in the intentions and actions we weave beneath its radiant gaze.

QUOTE: "If you are losing your leisure time, look out! You may be losing your soul." -Logan Pearsall Smith

ACT: On your day off, take the time to kick start your morning with a nutritious breakfast. You deserve a little pampering.There's a reason they call the most important meal the day.

REFLECTION: To feel good on the outside, you need to care for what's on the inside. By paying attention to our well-being and indulging from time to time , we free our minds.

So head to the kitchen for a hearty breakfast and remember that the higher the quality of gas we fill ourselves with, the further distance we will travel.

QUOTE: " There are no strangers here; only friends you haven't yet met." - William Butler Yeats

ACT: Find a local wish list and donate a gift.

REFLECTION: When we count down the days to momentous occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and graduations , we're generally filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation.

It's more than the thrill of receiving a gift; it's the knowledge that on that day, it's your moment to be surrounded by people who love you.

Giving when it's least expected brings with it an even greater thrill, an extra dise of excitement.

With no sense of obligation on either end, there is a subtle beauty. Serving as a reminder that even on the days you may not be publicly celebrated, someone out there is celebrating the fact that you exist.

Redemption is tied to the process of salvation. We were taught that redemption is a moral issue, but it's not; its a psychological process. To redeem something means to go back and salvage it. We were born as precious daughters and sons of God. We come into dysfunctional families because we humans have not been educated to remember who we are. We are raised with flawed parenting and as a consequence, create what psychology calls neuroses and dysfunctional ways of relating to the world, and we wind up distorted. To redeem means you go back and do a self-corrective process in order to remember that you are a spiritual being in human form, rather than a little person who belonged to your mother and father. Often, people have to go to therapy or growth groups, or have a practice of self-reflection and meditation to work through the psychological wounds they have taken on. The process... is...self-corrective...to get back in touch with who we really are and what we are here to do and be.... We are here to bring heaven to earth. A quote by Jacqueline Small

QUOTE: "Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together."
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

ACT: Grab a doggy bag after a big dinner out and give it to the first person you see who could use a nutritious meal.

REFLECTION: After a wonderful dinner in New York City, we walked not far from the restaurant with our large bag of leftovers only to see someone who we assumed could use a meal. As we locked eyes without words, and without thinking, without even stopping, we gave him our bag.

I wished we did stop long enough to even just ask for his name. But I felt that I was insulting him in some way.

No matter the simple idea that no food should be wasted, it led to a meal for an unexpected stranger.

And for that, I am grateful..

QUOTE: "Next time you talk to a charity , don't ask them about the level of their overhead , ask them about the scale of their dreams."
- Dan Pallotta

ACT: Make a donation to your favorite charity or cause. Maybe even set aside a percentage of your income if you're capable.

REFLECTION: The simple action of taking from our pocket to give to another unleashes a tremendous amount of reward and blessing.

It’s an acknowledgment that we are all here to see each other through, that we are all connected, that one man's gain is a gain for humanity as a whole.

-Aldous Huxley

ACT: Volunteer to be a tutor or helper somewhere that calls your heart.

REFLECTION: What I found was that the more I gave , the more I healed. With the most natural ease, I stepped into the role of a mentor focusing on women such as myself, who simply needed help to begin to see themselves with love.

ACT: Come across a straight animal?
Take some time to bring it to the animal shelter or sibling.Make a phone call, your call may help you.Reunite an owner with his or her pet.

REFLECTION: Kindness isn't simply the way we respond.When the world is looking at us, kindness is found in the whispers, the undetectable acts of compassion and love.And the recognition that we are all here to see each other through.

QUOTE: "If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough."-Meister Eckhart

ACT: Make eye contact and say "thank you" to everyone you encounter today who provides a service or makes your life easier even in the slightest way.

REFLECTION: Years ago, a friend of mine ran out of gas on the side of the highway. Before she had a chance to call for help, a stranger pulled over to find out if everything was okay. Upon hearing the situation, the stranger sped off in search of gas without hesitation. He came back with an extra can of gas poured a bit into the tank and drove off almost immediately. My friend barely had the opportunity to say thank you and was taken aback by the kindness and lack of need for validation.

The stranger that had lent to helping hand without need of validation, reminds my friend now to keep her eyes peeled for those in need.
