And whether you enter this holiday season with wonderful traditions to celebrate, or with a heart heavy from loss, you can find love when you look for it in the here and now.
Angels are everywhere...We feel their presence even in spirit...Angels are faithful to the power of good...Angels fill our lives with love and hope...There are always Angels near...Believe.
KEEP GOING !
2026 Soar!
MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND MUCH LOVE .
My Christmas Wish For You My Christmas wish for you, my friend Is not a simple one For I wish you hope and joy and peace Days filled with warmth and sun
I wish you love and friendship too Throughout the coming year Lots of laughter and happiness To fill your world with cheer
May you count your blessings, one by one And when totaled by the lot May you find all you've been given To be more than what you sought
May your journeys be short, your burdens light May your spirit never grow old May all your clouds have silver linings And your rainbows pots of gold
I wish this all and so much more May all your dreams come true May you have a Merry Christmas friend And happy New Year, too .. (Author - anonymous)
Never to take from creation’s beauty more than we give; never to destroy wantonly for the furtherance of greed;
Never to deny to give our hands for the building of earth’s beauty; never to take from her what we cannot use.
Give us hearts to understand
That to destroy earth’s music is to create confusion; that to wreck her appearance is to blind us to beauty;
That to callously pollute her fragrance is to make a house of stench; that as we care for her she will care for us.
We have forgotten who we are. We have sought only our own security. We have exploited simply for our own ends. We have distorted our knowledge. We have abused our power.
Great Spirit, whose dry lands thirst, Help us to find the way to refresh your lands.
Great Spirit, whose waters are choked with debris and pollution, help us to find the way to cleanse your waters.
Great Spirit, whose beautiful earth grows ugly with misuse, help us to find the way to restore beauty to your handiwork.
Great Spirit, whose creatures are being destroyed, help us to find a way to replenish them.
Great Spirit, whose gifts to us are being lost in selfishness and corruption, help us to find the way to restore our humanity.
Oh, Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the wind, whose breath gives life to the world, hear me; I need your strength and wisdom.
MERRY CHRISTMAS , HAPPY FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS, HAPPY KWANZA AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR, SWEETIE!
MUAH!
