Tinsel sparkling on trees that toys lie beneath,
Holly with berries and the hanging of the wreath.
Everything is red and ever-green.
Hearth and home are comforting;
Evening is nigh.
As the snow begins to flurry,
Radiant we see the stars in the sky
Tonight.
Oh, Holy Night the angels sang beneath one special star. Can you
Feel the way the shepherds felt back then so long ago?
Commercialism of the Yuletide season,
However, was never supposed to be the
Reason.
Is there something different that we
Should be doing?
Take a moment to reflect. What really matters?
Make a promise to the babe whose birth you celebrate
At this precious time. Do for others the whole year long and
Share your heart!
Will you come with me where
Everything is magical?
Wonder awaits you, and everything
Is beautiful!
Leisure can be ours, with
Luxury surrounding us!
Pack your bags.
Are you
Ready for adventure? Are you ready for
The best time of
Your life?
Lavish food and drinks we can
Indulge in, as well as many
Kinds of fun activities.
Entertainment on the ship is endless!
Take this trip with me.
Head out to the sea!
Enjoy the sun
Relaxing on a deck.
End your day with dancing or
Sipping on champagne!
Nothing could be finer than being
On a cruise!
Taste the good life
On exotic isles.
Mingle with
Others coming for their sweet
Revival time!
Reality left at home we will suspend.
On this cruise, we’ll let our hair down, and
We’ll party like there’s no tomorrow.

Computer catfish anglers
Are out phising every second, day and night
Trawling the world wide web with baited hook
For innocent victims to catch
Internet sites such as Facebook and Twitter
Supply them with constant schools of fish
How easily they reel in trusting people with their deception
Can you be one hundred percent certain
A person behind the computer screen is for real?
Trolls don’t live under the bridge like in fairy tales
Fake profiles, false pictures and fraudulent names
Intended to disguise who they really are
Sadly some victims of their abuse resort to suicide
Hope these evil ‘catfish’ get caught and end up in court

Inspired by the movie “Miracles from Heaven (2016)”
Live life as if a miracle
Open your eyes you’ll see
Undeniably biblical
It’s truly gluten-free
Some might be skeptical
Views might be apolitical
Everyone has their own say
No one stops to enjoy the day.
Take a look at the biological
Even Einstein could not disagree
Right before you all this time, give praise and thanks to Thee.
S ometimes you have to
M ake the best even
I f God gave you
L ittle to work with
E ven if it just means flipping that frown
R oses, ruby red you always brought with you
O h, my darling, I love you so much it hurts my heart
M y whispers tell you so over and over
A nd time and space does not diminish how I adore you
N ow, sit my darling and we will dine, and
T ip our wine glasses to love eternal
I n the flickering candles we speak so softly
C an we skip the final course, my love
R uby lips need your kisses
O h, come my love, follow me and, lets
M ake this night last long, oh kiss me my love
A nd hold me all the night in your arms, and
N othing can take you from me until the morning
T wo swirling in the moonlight as one . . . because
I inside this dream we are one forever, evermore, oh
C an it be true my love, that you are but a name engraved.

H ave lots of time for prayers and singing hymns-- I’ll be glad

S o help me God that I’ll abide in all my New Year’s resolutions.

Place 3 (up to 5 multi-w)
My warmest greetings of a Healthy, Happy and Prosperous New Year 2023 to all! God bless!
Abba, you are my light,
Body of my body,
Creator of the universe, who
Directs the earth in its orbit,
Effervescent incessant stars to dance
Fixed in the heavens. I
Glorify your name,
Hallelujah! Praise God.
I will walk in your truth
Jesus our savior a
King and your only-begotten son.
Life is more melodious with you.
Merciful with your compassion and forgiveness
Nourishing all you have created in me
Obedient to your word. A
Perfect law that sets me free, a
Quiet and peaceful life within your words.
Rejoice in my sufferings for your
Sake in so, allowing the Holy Spirit to
Transform me from within.
Unleash my spiritual growth and abolish the
Vanities of human wishes. Let the
World attest to xenacious
Xenodochial desire to all
Yearning for a never-ending
Zest only of joy and love.

Psalm 23:1 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
1 John 1:7 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
Xenacious
(adj) yearning for change
Xenodochial is an adjective describing something – such as a person, place or software application -- that is friendly to strangers.
A ccept life as it unfolds
C omplaining only leaves things worse
C oncur with agreeable suggestions
E ndure the adverse currents of life
P ostpone judgement till things seen in better light
T ake people as they are
A llow room for criticism and correction
N ever underrate your personal worth
C ontinue being comfortable in your own skin
E njoy life with all its follies and foibles

Humanity, once upon a long time ago did live in true paradise!
Understanding nature more than we ever have, give and, or take.
Moving on when required, leaving land to recuperate, another day.
Accepting that they had to share knowledge. not to rob the land!
Never turning fertile soil to deserts, to yellowing eroding sand.
Indeed collecting, gathering would work today, why don't we try?
Take chances, stick to the simple things in life, water, fire, no strife!
Yes, we must try to understand that what were doing is'nt grand!
