A favorite poem by Kahlil Gibran to live into if it resonates...
"Do not love half lovers
Do not entertain half friends
Do not indulge in works of the half talented
Do not live half a life
and do not die a half death
If you choose silence, then be silent
When you speak, do so until you are finished
Do not silence yourself to say something
And do not speak to be silent
If you accept, then express it bluntly
Do not mask it
If you refuse then be clear about it
for an ambiguous refusal is but a weak acceptance
Do not accept half a solution
Do not believe half truths
Do not dream half a dream
Do not fantasize about half hopes
Half a drink will not quench your thirst
Half a meal will not satiate your hunger
Half the way will get you no where
Half an idea will bear you no results
Your other half is not the one you love
It is you in another time yet in the same space
It is you when you are not
Half a life is a life you didn't live,
A word you have not said
A smile you postponed
A love you have not had
A friendship you did not know
To reach and not arrive
Work and not work
Attend only to be absent
What makes you a stranger to them closest to you
and they strangers to you
The half is a mere moment of inability
but you are able for you are not half a being
You are a whole that exists to live a life
not half a life”

Dear Ones,

For the winter solstice, may you be renewed, may peace prevail, & an ask…
As you may know, I’m currently a proud member of the Leadership Sangha (the board)] at the East Bay Meditation Center .I’ve witnessed firsthand how EBMC serves as a beacon of hope and resilience, especially in challenging times. The deep commitment to radical inclusivity, supporting diverse communities like BIPOC and LGBTQIA folks, those living with disabilities, and people with limited financial resources, makes it a truly unique sanctuary.

One of the many powerful things about EBMC is our Gift Economics model, which ensures that programs are accessible to all, regardless of financial means. This model relies on the generosity of the community, and this year, we have set an ambitious goal to raise $30,000 to deepen and expand EBMC's vital impact.

I’m personally making a gift and invite you to join me in supporting our shared vision. Every donation, no matter the size, is crucial for sustaining our inclusive and compassionate community. You can make a meaningful difference by donating here:
https://funraise.org/give/East-Bay-Meditation-Center/c835bc73-e799- .

Your support will empower EBMC to continue to cultivate resilience, nurture community, and spread compassion in a world greatly in need of it.

With gratitude,
Anjali
