Merry Sixth Day of Christmas! 

This day offers a gentle opportunity to reflect on the moments in our lives of birthing … aka “a-laying.”

Consider the “a-laying” moments and situations when
… a new idea was hatched
… a unique thought came to mind
… an alternative way of doing things emerged
… a possibility became a reality
… you realized that your ‘need to be needed’ took over your ‘need to care for yourself’
… taking “the road less travelled” challenged previous ways of thinking
… ‘push came to shove’ and a decision was made
… rebirth was experienced
… ‘the light turned on’ inside and insight clarified the situation
… your spirit was ignited with passion
… you physically gave birth to another human being
… your life was changed as you stood up for yourself or another

Consider the a-laying moments and situations when others were used to
… gave you birth
… drew you forth into creativity
… breathed life into your hurts
… taught you something you may not even have known at the time that you needed to know
… brought healing to your body, mind, spirit
… inspired you

On this, the Sixth Day of Christmas
may we all  ‘make’ time, not just ‘take’ time
… to consider the “a-laying” opportunities this day brings.
