Color of the day: Coral Incense of the day: Orchid Prepare your oven and ingredients as your cookie recipe directs. As you do so, think about how you met the people with whom you wish to strengthen your relationship. As you combine your ingredients, think about the qualities you wish to cultivate in your friendships: understanding, empathy, trust, companionship, appreciation, etc. Let the energy of those qualities flow into the cookie dough. As you shape the dough into cookies, repeat the following mantra: "With understanding let friendship flow, with sweetness let friendship grow." Bake the cookies according to the recipe. Take them out when they're ready, let cool, and give them to your friends. |
