Say yes to the mess
Every birth is an unequivocal “yes” to life. We enter the complexities on earth without any assurance that our lives will be smooth and we won’t have difficulties. We don’t know whether we will have a disability, experience the trauma of an earthquake or a fire, or struggle with addiction, or feel deep loneliness. Yet in spite of the insecurities, the unknowns, all the possible things that could go wrong, we are somehow willing to risk for life, we are willing to risk for love. Today, in the midst of the busyness of Christmas preparations, take a moment to appreciate the courage it takes to say yes.
