Hi there, this past week was number 46 and on Thursday there were 46 days left in the year. Whether you call this squared or said “JINX!” with your bestie, 46 still has some breathing room left before the year picks up. My mom was born in 1946. Sometimes when I would swim (more for another time) I would say the number over and over all the way through the lap and then associate and smile at all the things that made me think of that number. My birth year, the calendar year, an address, the year that I was married, my friend or dear one’s special day. It made the time pass and I was present, almost like a moving meditation.

I want to be present and savor all that is left in this year and bless and release what was, to make space for the new. I want to head into these holidays with an open heart and be a light to others, and take very good care of me. What do you want to do with your 46 days?
