post holiday peace

It's time to get back to work, at school and after school, in the kitchen and the laundry room and in the community.
As I lean my head gently toward the heartbeat of 2017, I can already hear the ways it's leading to joy. And I can already feel the way hope is pulling us forward, even if it is with small, sticky fingers.
Again I am reminded that peace is never as far away as it feels.
