                    Christmas Morning 2001 
Good Morning :)
 So this is Christmas...and a very Merry Christmas to you, your family 
and 
friends. During the past few weeks I have been on a soul journey of 
sorts. I 
have been trying to find the true meaning of Christmas and have often 
shared 
my thoughts with you. I am not sure I am any closer to the answer then 
I was 
at the beginning of this trek. :)
 
 Christmas Day has traditionally been the day we celebrate the birth of 
Christ. When love came down from heaven to both dwell among and change 
mankind. This love is never more evident than during the holiday 
season.
 
 ***My wish for you and for me is that somehow, super naturally we would 
allow this special kind of "LOVE" to live strongly and radiate from our 
hearts everyday of the year. That would be the coolest thing, imagine 
how 
different our lives would be?***
 
 There are many religions in this world, they all celebrate or honor a 
God, 
some match our own beliefs and some not. What I do know about most main 
stream religions is they all expound and call for this common thread, 
"COMPASSION."
 
 ****My next wish for you and for me is that God will make our hearts 
more 
compassionate by whatever means He chooses. I am sure this would also 
change 
our spheres of existence.****
 
 During this "Holy Season," I have also given much thought to the 
existence 
of "ANGELS" of course. I believe that Angels do exist because the bible 
said 
it is so. Also, there is strong evidence in my own personal life that 
Angels 
do care for us, guide us and keep us from both bodily and spiritual 
harm.
 
 I also believe in earthly Angels that live and dwell among us in human 
form 
because September 11th taught me this was also so. During times of 
disaster 
and deep sadness or calamities both personal and communal, we either 
develop 
hearts of stone or we become more compassionate. I hope you will always 
choose the road to being more open minded and compassionate.
 
 ****My third Christmas wish for you and for me is that we will all know 
the 
true touch of an Angel, both the divine and earthly kind, this coming 
New 
Year. We all or shall I speak for myself? I need to believe in the 
goodness 
of man and the existence of the miraculous and the extra ordinary. I 
need to 
believe that when it comes down to it we human beings will meet each 
challenge we face squarely in the face. Stepping up to the plate with 
renewed courage and hope. (Extra-ordinary times calls for 
extra-ordinary 
measures.)
 
 Let's see there is a wish for more LOVE, more COMPASSION, a touch of 
the 
extra-ordinary and miraculous...What have I forgotten?
 
 OHHHHHHHHH, I know....I wish you a wonderful New Year filled to the 
brim 
with the sweetest of blessings. I hope that you will always find a soft 
place to land when you trip and fall. I hope you will always have a 
loyal 
and true best friend to talk to and rely on. I hope you will always 
have a 
truth sayer in your daily life, someone that will tell you the truth in 
all 
things, but say it using real SOFT and loving words. I wish you health, 
added prosperity, joy beyond measure and most of all I hope you will 
always 
have an Angel at your side...These words are not new...but my fondness 
for 
you is. :)
 
 I have decided NOT to reveal my idenity to you. There are some of you 
that 
have guessed and I will not lie to you if confronted. I do want to 
leave you 
with these words...
 
 Lord, you come to us in the storm,
          the fire, and even in the stillness of a quiet moment.
     Sometimes your message is strong, carried on bustling angelic      
wings, sometimes our spirits are nudged, our hearts lightened by the   
gentle whisper of spirit voices. However you approach us, your message 
is 
always one of tender love and compassion. Thank you for the 
certainty--and 
the surprise of your voice either supernatually or through the lips of 
a 
friend.
 
 There is one certain thing about Angels,
         they appear out of no where and just as suddenly disappear.
           I am so sad to be leaving you, goodbye until next year.
