Presence is a Gift

It's not about what gift you give or receive.
It is about the love that you express in the giving and receiving.

What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace. -- Agnes M. Pharo

Christmas gift suggestions from Oren Arnold: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.




Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes. --Joan Winmill Brown


Somehow not only for Christmas But all the long year through, The joy that you give to others Is the joy that comes back to you. --Anonymous

Quotes:

Magical day.

Live your dreams

The fairy waves her wand and wishes you all a magical day.

Not alone

There is no hollowness in my heart
For it is filled and leaden with an effulgence of love
A love that fills and spills dispersing droplets everywhere
Moment by moment your voice whispers and beckons
Your presence is felt as the breeze rushes past me
Like a spinning vortex of fragrant air
Slipping a kiss upon the warm softness of my lips
I am the seed You planted then watched me unfold
Like the gardener tending to his flower, nurturing its growth
The garden then became my home and sometimes …
I was lost in the illusions of the thickets and twisted thorns
Thorns that would imbed themselves into my mind twisting and turning
Like the blade of a knife, the stubborn ego
The throbbing and the aching of a disillusioned soul
Retaliating with judgements
The flag of truce waving in the whirlwind of madness
I held my arms outstretch towards You the gentle Gardener of the Universe
Then one day Your messenger arrived expressing Your Love for me
The fear has almost gone
Beneath the moonlight Your Shadow walks with me
Comforting me with Your cloak of safety
I am … not alone
