Let’s open Door Number 12…
We are officially halfway to Christmas. Twelve doors down, twelve still to go. And today I just want to stop the clock for a moment and give you the softest, longest hug through these words.
You’ve made this December feel different already. I see you lighting candles, filling jars, singing badly on purpose, leaving secret gifts, whispering “more of this", and saying thank-yous out loud. I feel every single one of you here with me.
So here is your halfway gift:
A quiet permission to pause, breathe, and let yourself feel proud. You are showing up. You are keeping the light alive in your own small, beautiful way. That matters more than you know.
Take the rest of today gently. Drink something warm. Wrap yourself in the cosiest thing you own. Look at the lights (half-lit) on the tree, or the sky, or your own tired hands, and say, “I’m doing enough. I’m exactly where I need to be."
We’ve got twelve more doors together. And I’m so glad it’s with you.
Your turn. No task today. Just leave a ❄️ or a heart or a single word if you needed this hug too.
See you tomorrow for Door 13…
