SOMEDAY AT CHRISTMAS

STEVIE WONDER - SOMEDAY AT CHRISTMAS LYRICS

Hello World!

I've missed sharing with you. A friend of mine recently told me every day is a gift that's why it's called the present! So while you celebrate your holiday season remember that life is the greatest gift. There is meaning in every celebration. You will hear holiday music of all kinds this season. I encourage you to listen to the words.

I recently heard Stevie Wonder's song, "Someday at Christmas Time." In this song he references dreams of a time we may not see now but hopefully one day it will be seen if not by us someday at Christmas Time. Perhaps he chose this time because its a time of peace, joy, giving and sharing with family and friends. Imagine if we all had dreams we worked on for a better world. If in our lifetime we didn't see it come to pass we'd leave a legacy for future generations to continue working on it.

Imagine when the measureable goals are reached and we see the work of those that have come before us in our lifetime. Let's work to live out our best lives so that we can see a better world one day at Christmas Time.

May you and yours be blessed today and always!

Holiday Lights!

Greetings! ThresholdWorld Fam, I love how  Hanukkah  (which means dedication in Hebrew) is celebrated with eight nights of reciting blessings and lighting the menorah. Then about two weeks later the action of giving is celebrated with multicolored lights, decor, the birth the Jesus Christ and the message of love as a light to the world. The very day after is Kwanzaa . An African American and Pan African holiday celebrating family, community and culture. The Seven Principals, Nguzo Saba are celebrated by lighting a candle each day which has a specific meaning. Hanukkah Pic: Modern_Ritual Below is an excerpt from Dr. Maulanga Karenga , Founder of Kwanzaa. The message this year is Reimagining and Remaking the World: A Kwanzaa Commitment to an Inclusive Good. "And Kwanzaa is a celebration of freedom, of the free space we have created to honor ourselves, to remember, reflect and recommit ourselves. It is a celebration of hearts and minds free from self-doubt, self-deni...

Womb Wellness, Education and Celebration!

  Greetings, In May of 2003, I was 7 months pregnant and 10 days shy of my college graduation.  I’d be the first in my family to complete a degree at the time. My mom attended college, yet as a wife and mother in the 1960's, she didn't receive the support needed to continue. Her act in going inspired me. I was filled with so much promise, yet I'd need to develop a new plan. How would I care for a new life, while navigating a career in the real world? Naturally, I continued on with life discovering various paths, yet carrying so much in my womb unknowingly. Joy, Trauma and DisEase included. ——-Fast forward 17 years later ….my daughter would make me aware of a brand which would take me on journey to womb wellness.  Watch as I have a conversation with Genyii of Ahura Apothecary . Genyii is a certified mindfulness and womb wellness coach, holistic birthing doula, mother, community herbalist and owner/founder of Ahura Apothecary. In the video we discuss our journey to the sac...
