Winter of the Soul



The holidays are almost here.  This is a very emotional time of year for most of us, and when a tragedy hits our family, it becomes magnified tenfold.  This is supposed to be the time of peace, love and forgiveness, but so many of us are wallowing in ugliness, mean spiritedness and negativity.  That is something that can be changed.  We can change the world, the universe, with very little effort.  But we have to want the change- we have to do something Here and Now and stop wasting time on the hamster wheel.  Be a bigger person than the one from yesterday.  Reach out to those less fortunate, the lonely, the sick, the sad, the excluded, and let the world know what kind of person YOU are in the process.  And when you're walking the lonely road of grief, remember the angels walking a step ahead- and the ones without wings that are walking alongside.

  1. You are so right Jamie. There are angels among us and I thank God for them. When we fall, they are always there to help us up and put us in perspective of the really important things. These things are really so simple and we completely overlook them as insignificant when truth in fact is they are the most important of all. Reach out, take my hand and I will give you peace. Love to all this wonderful Christmas season. Keep writing, there is a difference to be made in the power of one! :)
