I Know You've All Been Very Naughty This Year

It is the time of the year known as Christmas, or Chanukkah, or Kwanzaa, or Solstice, or Saturnalia.  It's a time for feasting, drinking, and enjoying the company of loved ones.

It's a time then for me to wish all of the readers of my blog, my humble audience, whether in Australia, the USA, England, Germany, India, Russia, Indonesia, Thailand, or even New Zealand (apparently) a most joyous time.  If you have family and friends around you, enjoy the precious gift of their companionship.  Some cannot make it home for various reasons, whether because of work, distance, financial circumstances or health.  Some have no family at all.  It shouldn't matter, we keep those we love and care about in our hearts, no matter the distance.

So then, whatever your beliefs, where ever you are, what ever you do, remember there are more important things than money, position, power, status or your ambition.  Turn yourself instead to family, remember why you love them, and lose yourself in simple acts of generosity and kindness.

Aum, blessings upon you all.
