New Beginning

Christmas yet a month away,
our five year old already
buttering-up the spirit -- 
just in case God don't 
hear it, he runs gifts by dad
and mom, is beginning to
sense a sleigh connection -- 

Of course, mom and dad
instead of great wealth,
pray for divine protection, 
a share of good health;  
                            
pray for world peace, that all 
awakened soul's continue to
seek ever higher enlightened
worth~ 

With Christ, a greater sense of kinship

humanity's precious rebirth....

Kids and parents think differently. Wealth won’t buy protection, health, world peace, salvation. Nay, money, but prayers indeed…

While children look for gifts from their parents during Christmas, we should long for divine gifts from our Lord. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, we too should aspire for a rebirth in spirit. Dear Joe, enjoyed your sublime Christmas message.

Thank you, Hilda; Ila and I are by ourselves now, for the most part; all the little ones grown and flown the coop; so the holiday is by and far a religious experience.

- Children have completely different expectations for Christmas than adults, gifts, traditions and the magic of Santa Claus ... enjoy this time ... time flies far too fast - hugs

For sure; awaken them slowly, carefully...or they may become startled, feeling little more than shadows, frantic with light.
