A SPECIAL HOLIDAY THOUGHT.......

The weather is bad, all across the entire USA.......I hope you are safe....You may be worried about that last minute gift, but many will not receive a gift.......You are stressed about cooking....but many will go hungry...You hate you have to work and be away from your family.....many do not even have a job.....You want everything to be perfect....but no one IS perfect.....You feel your family is not thankful for all you do....some have NO family.....If you are reading this, then think about that you have more than many here in THIS country.....THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY....I want to take this time to wish each and EVERY one of you the best of a holiday season, no matter your belief, or religion, or ethnic background.....I wish you PEACE, GOOD WILL, AND THOUGHTS OF YOUR FELLOW MAN, WORMAN, OR CHILD....May you stop and reflect of only a positive thought, and remember that you do matter.....Please have a wonderful holiday season........{#emotions_dlg.wub}

What a beautiful sentiment, forrestwolf {#emotions_dlg.wub}

I tend to become melancholy this time of year, watching all the busy, vibrant families preparing for get-togethers. It's good to be reminded to count our blessings.

Wishing you and all the others on the forum a healthy, happy year ahead.

Re: A SPECIAL HOLIDAY THOUGHT.......

I appreciate all your thoughts!
I appreciate being alive in this wonderful world, to hear them.
I appreciate the light that shines through each of us.
I like feeling that light shine through me. I like knowing that all is well in this world, and that any time I want to, I can tune in to the flow of divine love of which we are all a part.
I am glad to know that tuning in more an more is a choice I can make, and that the more I feel this, the more of it comes into my life.
I am happy knowing that we are each creating our lives by what we focus our attention on.
It is so good when people reach for the the best feeling they can have at any moment.
At this season, people are feeling more and more tolerance, compassion, appreciation and generosity toward themselves and others, and I love it that I can feel the tide of all these feelings like music in my heart.
I like beating the drum of the best that is in every moment.
I appreciate how everyone wants to feel better, and does their best to find ways for this to happen.
I really love knowing that everything is always working out for me, and that I am alive and breathing and paying attention to that.
I am content that the sun has passed its nadir and is returning a minute at a time to shine on us.
I love it that each one of us has his or her own desires and wishes, and I wish for each of you your own version of happiness and full bliss!
