Other Thoughts 7

Christmas 2009
May you always have hope and know that you are loved so your hearts overflow with joy at the oneness of all.Merry Christmas and a Joyful New Year
Christmas 2010
We are living in very challenging times. Here on Mother Earth, at the end of 2010, it appears to be increasingly so. As spiritual beings having a physical experience, we must, however, do our best to maintain our equilibrium. One way to keep our balance is to stay in the "Eye of the Storm".
In 1985, I was working for a Wall Street law firm when Hurricane Gloria hit. Everyone had been given the day off but I went in to power down the computers. As I waited in my 15th floor office, leaning out the window, I saw the flags flapping furiously in the wind. As the eye of the storm came over, the flags stilled and the sun shone. All was very quiet, calm and peaceful. However, as the eye of the storm moved north, the flags were once again whipped by the winds, the rain returned, and I had to shut the window. After Hurricane Gloria passed through, I brought the computers back up for those who would come in later and took the train home. There, I found several trees had come down, including one several feet in diameter which grew about 70 feet behind the house. Its upper branches had just missed the house, coming to rest between the house and the shed at the end of the driveway. My neighbor graciously offered to have her insurance take care of it since the tree straddled the property line. I had missed all the excitement while being in the eye of the storm, a place of calm and peace. As the world around us changes ever more rapidly, we must become more aware of our own space. We must become more aware of our own heart energy. We can stay safely in the eye of the storm by centering our self in our own space, our own heart. It is the heart which recognizes and knows truth. It is in our heart where we meet the Divine. And it is in our heart where we find peace and calm as in the eye of a storm. We can remind ourselves to stay in the eye of the storm whenever we feel emotionally, mentally, physically or spitritually challenged as we wait to see what the future brings.
May you always walk in the Light, with a song in your heart, and laughter in your ears all your days. May Divine Love surround you and comfort you, and fill you with peace .May your heart overflow with joy, and know that we are all one. For we are all parts of God, of the Creator.
Christmas 2012
Now, once again, we celebrate The birth of one we imitate. To live in peace and joy each day, He came to Earth to show the way, To walk in love without any fear, Remembering that God is near, Knowing fear blocks light and love here, Light and love yet banishes fear.Remembering that we are one We dance, sing and play in the Sun Our journey shared with Planet Earth, Remembering all she is worth. Thankful each day for all that is, Brothers and sisters, we are His, The Creator's Star born children are we Experiencing what it is to be.Daily, sharing joy and sorrow, We live today, not tomorrow. Pretending and imagining, All that we wish for, and watching In wonder, as it come to be, We create our reality. For thoughts are things, and it must be That what we think is what we see.
Wishing for peace and brotherhood? Be peaceful for the common good. Forsake war, violence and greed, and take care of each other's need. The past we have seen and learned from. The future seen is yet to come.It is today that we must live. It is all that we have to give.
Dec. 31, 2013
May our days be filled with sunshine and rain be marked with rainbowMay our sorrows be as gentle as the softly falling snowMay our joys have us all soaring, higher than eagle in flightMay we dance and sing together and always be in the light.

Christmas 2015
The way of the heart. Tis the season we think of peace. Will we choose peace? Or allow war mongers to have their way? We cannot "fight" for peace. The way to have peace is to BE peaceful, to hold peace in our hearts. We must BE the Eye of the Storm, holding peace and love in our heart, attracting others to the Eye of the Storm so the Eye engulfs the storm.
Christmas 2021
May we always walk in Light, with a song in our heart, sharing laughter all our days. May Love surround us all. As we fill with joy and peace. Blessings overflowing. May we know we are all one, parts of the Creator.

Christmas 2018

What follows has little to do with religion. It is spiritual. There is a world of difference. What is the Christ Consciousness? It is the Spirit of the Luminescent [divine consciousness] responsible for this universe. Love. It is the essence of the Creator which is Love. The Christ Consciousness is a spirit of Love.
Two millennia ago, a human was born into Earth with the purpose of personifying, becoming one with the Christ Consciousness. He was successful, the first of our kind to do so. He became an expression of love in his daily life. This is not easy as a human. He frequently withdrew to pray and meditate. Today, he is called by many Jesus the Christ or Jesus who became the Christ. Many religions have been created by humans in his name. They each attempt to follow his way to greater and lesser degrees but none succeed. Many individuals, however, have followed in his footsteps, endeavoring to show love in their own daily lives. Thérèse of Lisieux, aka, Teresa of the Little Flower; Francis of Assisi; Mother Teresa of Calcutta who offered dignity to all; Amma who hugs everyone; and Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi, are but a few examples. We, this Christmas of 2018, do indeed have much for which to be grateful. Contrary to controlled information, the Christ Consciousness is completely integrating in 2018 with all aspects of planet Earth. The Spirit of Earth (aka Gaia, Turtle Island. etc.) is one with the Christ Consciousness and we are all beneficiaries. We are daily surrounded by the Christ Consciousness, by Love. Can you feel it? We each contain a spark of the Christ Consciousness for we are, each and all, a facet of the Divine. We can daily express our gratitude by showing love to all we meet

Christmas 2019

As we remember the birth of one who incarnates love, we celebrate that we are love, born into Earth to manifest this love through our delight, gratitude and joy in helping each other.Earth is no longer for us a three dimensional world where we live in fixed sequential moments of linear time in fixed instances of linear space. Earth is an ever changing sphere of light and love, of infinite opportunities and endless possibilities. We are being love in the Here and Now, one with Damiki across the universe, one with "My Heart Sings" in all of Creation, one with all.May we walk in sunshine, enjoying gentle rain, with the wind at our back,

Winter 2019

We living with Earth are at a crossroads. Earth is in the process of upgrading, cleaning out all that is not useful, clearing away all that impedes. Will we follow her into new expressions of harmony and creativity? Will we put aside our fears to embrace new opportunities in cooperating and working with each other? Together, we, as sovereign people, may create a new, better, more wonderful existence for us all.Our choice.Which path are you walking?

Winter 2022

We.
