I wish everyone a blessed day tomorrow. I for one am mot particualrly looking forward to it this year and thats probably the first u have every daid this as I just adore this time of year. I read something today that said grief and Christmas go together like oce and fire and I can completely relate to that. However, the love of my family, friends and the positive energy and love from everyone in the coven has given me the boost I needed so much. Know that all who are alone or experiencing the season without a loved one for the first time are in my thoughts and I am sending you my love. Have a blessed day when it comes. Alan ---

Take care everyone and remember it’s okay to not be okay. Never feel guilty for saying β€œno” to any holiday festivities and putting your self-care first. ---

I hope everyone has a great weekend however they choose to spend it. It’s perfectly okay to not disrupt your own peace for the benefit of others as @Kasandra pointed out. It’s okay to not be okay, especially this time of year & any other time. @Sivonnah thank you, I hope you have a lovely weekend & time with your family. @Cosmic_Curiosity I hope you find some time to process this first season in your own way. Having been there & currently feeling the same sentiment. Be sure to take care of yourself & know that you are loved:heart: & notvalone during this time πŸ«‚ Everyone is with me & sending much love to everyone during Yule & the rest of the holiday weekend. ---
