I spent the day shopping for others, finding the perfect little tokens of appreciation for the people who make my life better in so many different ways. There is a specific kind of wealth that comes from knowing exactly what will make a friend smile and having the means to provide it for them. Dhanteras is the season of giving, and I am finding that my heart feels much fuller when I am thinking about someone else's happiness. May you be surrounded by people who know your heart and may you always have plenty of love to give away.
