“May you plan to stop giving away your precious energy” — I loved this bit, Donna. As I’ve been trying to manage my energy in such a way that I don’t give too much to something’s and too little to others. Which is actually why I’m late to this post — I took a little break from substack over the Christmas break to spend more time with my partner and family.
Also, I’m very excited for your upcoming presentation :)
I’m glad you liked it Michael! It’s very important to take those breaks, I did the same which is why you will see me commenting a week late (tomorrow) on your most recent article.
Such a perfect message Donna and what a beautiful setting. Joyful blessings to you and your family and the brightest of celebrations in the warmth of you hearth and heart. 🙏💫
Donna, seeing you with winter cabin in the backdrop makes me want to go inside and build a cozy fire, cook up some hot chocolate, and have a good long chat together. Wishing you and your family wonderful holidays. With love, Renée
Renee, I wish we could curl up in front of a fire and read our books or fill the hours with conversation! Maybe we will manifest that in the coming year.
Wishing you many blessings in the months ahead, xoxo❤
Donna, your wish is pure heaven to me. Recognizing that this time last year, neither of us knew of the other, and then, there I was having coffee with you, I can only imagine what the coming year might bring. Maybe this will come to be!
Catching up and what a treat to see your smiling face. Looks like a wonderful time with your family. All the best to you and many blessings my friend. So happy to have ‘met’ you here. Looking forward to what 2024 brings.
I am so glad we met here too Kim! I look forward to many more meaningful online conversations in the coming year. Wishing you a year of gentle challenges and many joyful moments! xoxo❤
This is in Invermere, where I live. Well, I don't live in this building as it's our shed not our cabin, but it is in my yard so I could potentially live in it if I was in the dog house🤣 but it would be very chilly!
Wishing you a year of many laughs and a lot of meaningful work Kristi, I'm SO glad you're here❤
Oh Pamela, your comment touches me deeply. Please don't tell yourself you are broken, even in jest. I know many days it feels that way, but inside of your beautiful self there is a light that we need you to shine.
Lovely to see and hear you today .. sending seasons greeting to you from a rather balmy Leicestershire UK 🇬🇧.. My intention for 2024 include spending more time and energy in Substack and making connections here. X
Welcome Krissy, I am SO glad you are here and appreciate you dropping into the comments section where the greatest people on the internet hang out, or at least some of them😀
Thank you for sharing this post, I look forward to checking it out.
-- Once more, may the spirit of the season envelop you in peace and happiness, extending its embrace throughout the upcoming year. P.S. Wishing you a great adventure ahead, in the Winter Wonderlands. Xo.
I feel like your words embraced me in a wonderful hug Thaissa! I am thankful this year connected us and look forward to many more months of life exploration together❤
Thank you Donna. Wishing you Merry Christmas, filled with Joy and Love. Hope the new year brings inspiration, creativity and expansion of the mind, so that you can continue to enlighten the lives of others.
Thank you so much Rolando. I appreciate your contribution to The Bright Life community and look forward to collaborating with you in the future (I promise I will get back to you on that, I'm looking forward to it!). Many blessings this holiday season!

Seeing you with a cabin in the snow behind you just sent me a breath of winter wonderland. I hope you and your family enjoy the holiday!
Thank you Sweetie! It's not as wintery as usual here unfortunately but still very beautiful.
It's so lovely to see your face and hear your voice. Where is that winter wonderland you're talking from and how do I get there? 😁
Happy holidays to you Donna! Looking forward to what you've got coming in 2024.

Looks beautiful out there! If you ever put a toilet and a heater in your shed I'll rent it from you and move 🤣🤣 Looks rustic lol.
It would be the perfect writing shed (if it had heat and a bathroom and a coffee maker!). I'll keep you posted!
Ha! Yes please!
Thank you for shining your light with all of us! Have a wonderful time with your family during the holidays ❣️✨🤍✨❣️
Thanks Hon! xoxo
May you know you are not broken
This phrase touched me - I often say “I am broken”, sometimes in jest, sometimes by description, sometimes when I’m down.
I had not given any thought of the phrase until I just read it in your writing.
Thank you for Clarity in more ways than one.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays Happy Year’s End.
You are so kind! ♥️
Oh Pamela, your comment touches me deeply. Please don't tell yourself you are broken, even in jest. I know many days it feels that way, but inside of your beautiful self there is a light that we need you to shine.
Sending you love and light for the coming year💕
Have a great holiday, Donna!
Thank you Paul, wishing you the very best in the coming year.
P.S. I'm working on all of your instructions and look forward to getting back on it in January😃
Excellent!

Carolyn I love see you in my comments section! Sending awesome vibes across the pond and looking forward to many more connections this coming year❤
thank God you don’t ski that way…anymore 🙃 Thanks for the wonderful gift post today. 🙏
I assure you if I took a jump it never looked like that🤣
Blessings to you and Ann this holiday season!
Right back at ya, sis! Lovely wishes.
That pic of your son!
