a peace settled over this casita late on christmas eve and i just wanted to soak it in before bed. my heart felt fully here.

there is power in the making of new memories. each one sends down a root, even if you're still struggling with commitment.
the i-don't-wanna-do-this is quieted.

there was that thrill of Hope. my weary heart rejoiced. this soul sang with thankfulness.

i miss the glow of advent candles and twinkle of tree lights.
 so let me close my eyes and be comforted by these new roots.
