At this time of year especially, these are my wishes for you:

May you know that you are precious and lovable no matter what.

May you know that you are enough.

May you consume with mindfulness, knowing that you are connected to all living beings.

May you feel your stable centre in the midst of chaos around you.

May you share your gift of loving presence.

"It's A Wonderful Life" is one of my most treasured films. I have watched it every year since I was about five years old. This scene is one of my favorites as it represents such a profound experience "George" is going through. From a place of deep despair and suffering, he has woken up to the fact that he matters . He is rejoicing in the fact that he exists, he is alive, and he is loved. He knows his life has its challenges and he knows, that in the big picture, he is fundamentally okay. He chooses to focus on gratitude, joy, resilience, and love. He is also truly successful because he allows himself to be helped by people who care about him.
