Reading 863: work

Like snow falling softly on a field after harvest, this is a year to wind down and look back quietly. Rather than rushing, sort out what you have done so far and calmly plan what comes next. Under the snowy field, next spring is being prepared.

Money

A year to store and organize what you have harvested. Review the money that came in and went out this year, and draft next year's budget ahead of time. Those who winter well are the first to sow in spring.

People and relationships

You think of the people you were grateful to throughout the year. Sincere year-end greetings make your relationships warmer. Quietly spending time together is a great comfort.

A small habit for this year

At year end, look back and write down five things you did well and five people you are grateful to.
