{mansuetude}
“gentleness; mildness”
Oh goodness. That’s a word to take to heart. A season of mansuetude. Of slowing down to simple gentleness, taking care toย soothe the heart, soften the runaround, to arrive at a moment of stillness. The holiday greenery that abounds is rich and gorgeous, and yet there is a distinct simplicity, a subtleness that reminds us of peace that surpasses the external.
