Happy Thanksgiving week! Regardless of whether you are preparing for a party of twenty or taking the time to tend to your self, we hope that it is a welcome pause to reflect, celebrate and see that there is still warmth and wonder in the world.
This Thanksgiving, TYC will be closed. We will be back in action on Friday with all of our regularly scheduled classes. Join us this Saturday for two specials additions to our weekend lineup:
- 8am-3pm The Shop at TYC will be open for Small Business Saturday! Enjoy 25% off your purchases. We appreciate you taking care of yourself AND shopping local!
- 11am-12:15pm- Donation Class to Benefit the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. Join Abby Polk as she leads a donation-based class to preserve services to preserve the Mashpee Wampanoag culture.
Have a beautiful week, friend. Be safe and be well. We do love you and are thankful for you and all who cross our threshold.
With Love,
Melissa & Your Friends at TYC
The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
