This is a quiet place within the estate.

Each week, we leave a short reflection here for those who wish to pause before continuing on.

The first week of the year does not ask us to arrive with plans.

It asks only that we notice what we have brought with us.

We step forward holding what matters most —
the people we love,
the places that steady us,
the small rituals that have carried us through.

Gratitude is not a list to complete.
It is a way of walking.

As the year opens, we move ahead gently,
carrying close what we already cherish,
and allowing the rest to unfold in its own time.
