Ramblin On

Rambling On...and on..and on..., Somewhere down South, United States
Finding the humor in this world, particularly adept at laughing at the absurdities in myself...learning to live in the moment

Holiday Greetings

Verbatim:an email I sent out yesterday:
Holiday Greetings

As the new year approaches and I reflect upon the last one,
I want to convey my hopes for everyone
whose name in my address book
Indicates correspondence in the past year

May you…

Find yourself surrounded by people who truly love you-
Friends who stay with you even when it disturbs their ‘comfort zone’;

Seek the higher roads in life-despite an easier way-
And find the courage to travel them without compromise;

Take time to marvel and appreciate the intricacies
Of something so delicate and perfectly made as a Butterfly;

Learn the art of finding “Moments” for self-discovery,
Mastering and protecting them from the intrusion of the world’s expectations;

See the good in each and every person,
Even when their actions make it difficult to see beyond;

Seek the quietness and stillness found in snow falling
When the static of life’s chaos threatens to deafen you
To the “quiet little voice” of reason and consciousness;

Most of all,
As you study your own personal year in review, may you
Learn from your mistakes,
Build on your successes,
Appreciate what you have been given,
Grieve what you have lost,
Listen for the quiet moments,
Strive to see the unseen,
Hear the music in everything around you,
Allow your senses every opportunity to expand,
Live in each moment,
And experience fully the best year given to you thus far,
Because you are seeking the possibilities of each day!

Love!
