Thanks for sharing a part of your life and endeavors with us. The poem gives the timeless message of inspiration and hope. I like the Christmas village . It was so nice of you both to help make their holiday brighter.....M

to find contentment and happiness
is personal choice
many choose bad moods, irritation,
disappointment, falling into the victim role
and forget the most
beautiful experience of all...

You express much wisdom in this poem, Debby. Thank you. Love and blessings to you,

"the inner spirit is completely alive
and perfect, it knows everything
and is always connected to its source
it is the human instrument in its being,
doing, worrying, and wanting
orchestrated by the untamed mind
that instigates so much suffering...
and how you feel, creates the next experience..."

Wow, you sound like my guru so much, but with you it's authentic! You're not mouthing anyone else! If I'd known this was your Christmas poem I would've come sooner (good day for it!)
And you and your hubby really built that village? Such energetic loving work to share with others! Beats music!
Peace & Goodwill to your & yours NOW and always, Michael

a superb message to this inspirational poem ... so true, all the matter is The Now ... if all people could live in this enlightened state, the entire world would indeed be a continuous supernal celebration ...

Hi Debby,this is a wonderful poem,I enjoy reading it and I like the village in the background that you and Gorden built.People can control how they feel and not anybody else including family members.It just like writing a book,you decide what you want to add into it.I enjoy this poem,take care and Merry Christmas

Great idea, I wore my Santa costume down to visit the Alzheimers ward last week and the ladies and gentlemen there loved to see and shake Santa's hand

What a lovely village you both created...How special of you to think of others during this time of year.... The poem is truly well written as well... Hugs, lindalaw

Perfect.

Debby, great picture and holiday greetings to you and Gordon. If you want any of the 4" of snow we had on the north coast you are more than welcome to take what you want... we are expecting more tomorrow.

Cheers and peace,

This gets a standing-O from me, Debby. Your wisdom is the stuff the world watches and waits in expectation of... and yet where is it to be found? Alive in the inner spirit that breathes its truth and light into heart and mind to produce this inner calm and equilibrium. Time IS always NOW! Bravo! And a truly Happy, Peaceful Christmas to you and yours. xx :))

this is a joyful time, aligned with the
Christ consciousness, not religious drama
but pure heavenly light, peace on earth exists
in your heart, joy to the world is a state of mind,
goodwill toward men, is the gratitude and
brotherly love gifted to everyone you encounter

Amen to that!

So much wisdom contained in this poem Debby. I especially like the lines below which are so very, very true:

"to find contentment and happiness
is personal choice
many choose bad moods, irritation,
disappointment, falling into the victim role
and forget the most
beautiful experience of all...

only you...

choose how you feel"

Merry Christmas to you and to yours,
Marcia
