Dear Divine Friends,
It is yet again, a time of great intensity on the planet. I am certain this will not be the last time that I open a message with that sentence. It feels as if we are in a never ending cycle of disasters but within this is great hope. Within each disaster, within the human suffering, is great opportunity for love and miracles. There are so many stories of neighbors helping neighbors throughout southwest Florida and that, by its very nature, is how we overcome the darkness.
We do not need to drive to Florida to share in a miracle. We each have an opportunity to choose love over the darkness with every interaction we have with others. We can be channel for love or we can perpetuate the darkness. Calm another who is fearful instead of adding to anxiety. Say kind words about another instead of gossiping. Offer a friend something they need or a gift unexpectedly and receive heartfelt gratitude. Small miracles, every day. This is how we collectively share in higher love and stop the cycle of negativity.
Be in the higher love,
Brooke

Give Love - Share Project Ideas
​During the holiday season, Madhukara takes on one large service project to help others in need. Last year, we served the students and teachers of Saint Vincent's School in Elkhart, IN. Like many schools serving lower income communities, Saint Vincent's does not have resources to fully provide for their students. Madhukara provided a large gift card to the school, a holiday celebration meal for the teachers/staff, and individual student gifts. This is just one example of how we may serve our communities. We would LOVE to hear from you! Please send along your ideas of communities in need that Madhukara can help this holiday season. Contact brooke@madhukara.org.
