I bought a beautiful new vase today and filled it with the brightest sunflowers I could find in the local market this morning. They stand so tall and always face the light, which is exactly how I want to approach the coming year and all its many challenges. Dhanteras is a day to set our internal compass toward the sun and refuse to be dragged down by the shadows of our past mistakes. I hope you always find the light, no matter how far you have to turn, and that your life is always as bright as a summer day. ๐ป
