Final Thought for 2012

The point is not to pay back kindness but to pass it on ~ Julia Alvarez

The Day You Were Born

Christmas Spirit

Wouldn't life be worth the living
Wouldn't dreams be coming true
If we kept the Christmas spirit
All the whole year through?
~Author Unknown

Christmas is Forever

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself.

Peace on Earth, good will to men,
kind thoughts and words of cheer,
are things we should use often
and not just once a year.

Remember too the Christ-child, grew up to be a man;
to hide him in a cradle, is not our dear Lord's plan.
So keep the Christmas spirit, share it with others far and near,
from week to week and month to month, throughout the entire year.

~Norman Wesley Brooks

God's Perfect Time

Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God.
~Diana Robinson

The Vow

I take you to be my partner in life and my one true love.

I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you,

Lovingly and faithful through good times and bad,

Regardless of the obstacles we may face together.

I give you my hand, my heart, and my love,

And I promise to be there for you for all your life, come what may.
