Merry Christmas - Happy New Year - Happy Holidays

Love, Love, and Love --- This thought came to me again recently. I would so truly love to have this feeling every day about everything; however, I am human as we all are who are reading this.

I was driving from the local train station parking lot recently, feeling frustrated at this city's parking lot traffic jam. And, compared to many cities of its size and larger, it more aptly would be described as a traffic snarl. Within minutes the car was untangled and back on the streets as I was heeding to traffic lights, merging lanes and what I considered more normal challenges, obstacles and scenarios. For what amounted to only a couple minutes, I was very unloving, and feeling very unloved.

And, this was just before Christmas. Missed wishing you all a Merry Christmas - so I do that now within the holiday season still. Sincere best wishes for a very Happy New Year and truly delightful Holiday Season, with hopes that it will continue and last the whole year long.

It likely won't, as we begin again the year 2012 and the day to day minutia that begins to take over that can get me, at least, so involved and so distracted from that love feeling, that love response.

Suggestion: For me and others who may have a similar challenge. Keep that word in front of me at all times. Begin the day with it - have lunch with it - and before get in the car, repeat it multiple times. Then treat it like the verb that it is. Act upon it each and every day. With myself and with others.

Good Morning Susan Denise of Penfield NY....Isn't it something how the small things sometimes can frustrate us and then when we step back for a moment and take a breath all is well. Having the love feeling each day is possible may not seem like it at time. With God in our corner we can do all things.

The word love is an excellent mantra. Thank you for continuing to being here as your post energize me. Look forward to reading more. Love the picture as it continues on into eternity and the footprints are delightful touch.

Let us know when your having another seminar.

Been a follower of yours for over 3yrs and you continue being a gift from God
