Holiday Joy

Greetings

I feel moved at this time of year to be sure that I take

time to enjoy and celebrate how many wonderful things that

have come to pass since this time last year.  This time last

year I did not have my Radio Show nor was I creating the

art that now is hanging on public display.  I had about

50 less people on my business network than I did in Dec 2008

and about 6 less great new friends!  I was not in my beautiful

apartment with it’s City Wide Mountain and Lake views and I was not

able to travel to Texas to see my children for Christmas until the 26th

because we were snowed in here. (Seattle)

Now in Dec. of 2009 I have so much that has blossomed

and is ripening that I can truly say that many of my desires

have been realized.

I am feeling content, grateful, and loved.

I am aware that these developments over the past year are gifts

born of faith, perseverance , and trust; trust in the Universe

and it’s infinite ability to respond to my requests and prayers.

Many days were spent in 2008 taking steps toward an invisible future

that only my heart could sense and see.  Even though I felt lonely

at times I KNEW I was never alone.  I let go of needing to know more

and practiced expecting to be happily surprised and I was.

Looking back is sometimes harder and sometimes easier than

looking forward and I KNOW neither the past nor the future has

the power that this very moment has.  So this year I will endeavor

to place even more of my attention in the present and experience

more of the love that knocks on my door daily.  I wish for the world

that it’s people find their truth and allow others their truth.  I wish

for each mind to move humbly, bending closer to the heart listening

for its wisdom and following the guidance found there.

As we all approach the dawning of 2010 may we relax and embrace

ourselves as lovingly as we would like to be embraced by others.

May thousands of miracles come into your lives this year

nurturing you and overflowing to all those you meet.

Happy Holidays!
