2015


New Year celebration clockRather than compose elaborate resolutions for the year to come, simply do, in some small way, what you intend to do all year:
  • Say “Thank you” to at least one person.
  • Make one healthy choice about your body—food or drink or rest or motion.
  • Do one generous act, big or small.
  • Say “yes” to the day’s gifts.
  • Get quiet for five minutes, just to be still.
  • Let one person know that you appreciate him or her.
  • Do one creative act, big or small.
  • Allow yourself to consider what someone else is going through.
  • Do one thing well and with full attention.
  • Open your arms—and your heart—to God.
If you did it today, you can do it again, and again.
Blessings and graces to you,
Vinita and the DDF staff
