Celebrating Blessings.

What can a month of “celebrating blessing” look like?

It can look like a group of people, centered in love, coming together to recognize and uplift the blessings that we all are to each other.

It can look like a group of people, who know that each one of us is a blessing, undoing the normalization of violence by behaving in affirming and caring ways.

It can look like a group of people, who know that this Earth and all her gifts are a blessing, raising our awareness to a level that nurtures the Earth instead of violates it.

It can look like a group of people, centered in joy, who welcome others into a warm embrace so that they, too, know that they are a blessing to this world.

Celebrating the blessings within us and all around us is essential to transforming this world. It is essential to maintaining hope, to generating enthusiasm, to deepening our connections and being together in the ways we want the world to be. This world so desperately needs leaders to show us the ways of love. Let us be leaders in this Polk County community. This month, let us learn how to celebrate blessings so we may turn outwards to the community, seeking even more blessings and building relationships that normalize empathy, compassion, and love.

Let us join together in Love + Connection = Transformation!
