CHRISTMAS!

December 25th. The day the world celebrates the birth of Jesus. The day when our thoughts and actions turn to love and peace toward all. What about the other 364 days of the year? It would seem that during those days, we forget the Christmas Love and the Peace we speak of during Christmas.

In metaphysics, we tend to believe that the Christmas season is more than just a celebration of the birth of Jesus. It is a celebration of the Christ that lives within each and everyone of us on Planet Earth. It celebrates that Light of God that is expressing through each one as we allow it to do so.

That being said, I acknowledge the challenges that can put a basket over that light. The challenges that take us to a dark place of depression and sadness. Loss of a loved one, loss of a job and the financial stress that goes along with it, fear of being alone. All of these events or feelings make it difficult to believe that this is a Season of Love and Light.

This morning as I was driving my daughter to her work, I was bemoaning something that was making me somewhat sad. Her words of wisdom brought me back to center quickly. She asked why I would let something or someone like that bother me when I had so much more about which to be happy. I guess she was listening to all my "preaching."

Her advice was heeded and I immediately came home and readied myself for our Christmas celebration later this evening.

I had placed a basket over the light. I was choosing to see things as they appear not as Truth. As I became still I wondered what the world would be like if we decided we would not only celebrate the birth of Jesus on this day but also the re-birth of the Christ Light in all people this day. What would happen? Would we take time to listen to other's opinions that differed without judging? Would we stop posting the hate on Facebook? Would we agree to disagree in a consciousness of Love and attempt to come to an agreement?

So today, I am choosing to celebrate the re-birth of the Christ Consciousness within me and all people. My intention is to look beyond those traits or actions that frustrate me and see the innocent babe within.




May this day be a Happy Holy Day for one and all!

Namaste,

Mareda
