Christmas Month - Day 17

I'm not going to forget that there are many aspects easily forgotten and this is a great reminder to me and to anyone who visits my blog.

Christmas Month - Day 8

We forget sometimes about the love that goes in the giving.  We look at the gift without seeing the heart of the giver.

St Teresa was right!  It isn't how much we give.  It's the love that is inside the giving.  

Day 20 Christmas Blessings

As we reach the last few days before Christmas, Let's count our blessings and look around to see who we can bless during this beautiful season.

We haven't decided yet what we will do but we always make it a tradition to shower someone with a surprise blessing.  There's still time and we will finalise this before the year is over.

Come on, Stephen, put your thinking cap on! 

Christmas Thoughts

Yes, for me, this is what I like to think about.  The good that I have done throughout my life will carry me on and spur me to help others.  

There were moments when it seemed that people took it for granted but the fact is that it doesn't matter.  The reality is that we did good and that alone is enough. Even if it is not appreciated isn't really the point.  The main reason was the spirit in which the good deed was done.

With that, I resolve to do more in 2015 for those around me.  There's no better way to spread good cheer other than sharing what we have.  

People say I am rich.  I think they are right!  I'm rich in my heart because I know how to give without thinking of getting anything back. 

Countdown: Chrstmas eve already

It's been a remarkable month despite some hiccups! I've enjoyed having a post-a-day countdown to Christmas.  It's helped me to remember that I have to get things in order and also to stay focussed on the reason for Christmas.

Too many people get caught up with all the decorations and have so little room in their lives for the more important things.  There are some who scoff at others who don't have a lavish spread on the table or enough cakes/cookies to feed an army.  But the true spirit of the season is to spare a thought for those in need.  

Did you do anything for anybody this Christmas?  I hope you can answer "YES".   If not, there's still time. Give something to someone in need.  Touch a life and change their day!

Meanwhile, here's a pre-Christmas wish to all of you!

Countdown: 15 days to Christmas

No need to wish as we can make it happen by just doing at least one good deed a month.  Take on the challenge, will you?

Countdown: 28 days to Christmas

Anytime is a good time to make someone less fortunate smile.  During this season, we should be on the lookout for all opportunities to make people smile.
