I was thinking about the many people hanging out today outside the gas stations& stores dotted all across the florida countryside.
I was thinking about the masses of the disenfranchised , most of those a little crazy I suppose, but every one of them perfectly flawed...
I can can imagine a world where people need to make a difference,and drag a stranger to Christmas dinner, to sit next to their demanding sons, and their spoiled daughters...
If I ruled the world, every gift given wold be hand made, form the heart- I crave cookies and jam myself, and I know how happy they make me.
I close my eyes and send wishes for those sitting alone, some staring at the television set- others at a computer screen similar to mine, that they may feel loved above all else today, that they can find a way to put aside the rantings of their egos, and share the love they feel with someone that would never expect it, just because...
I ask myself why there are missing children at Christmas tables all across our great land, and why their absence is required for the benefit of a few.
I smile and shed a tear of gratitude for those on the front lines of every conflict in the world, for our true heros are being wasted for material gain.
I am hoping that the christmas trees standing in houses that are in danger of being lost shine bright and bring hope to all those inside...
I give thanks for all blessings, painful though some may be, and I recognize
just how wonderfully lucky I am to be right here, right now, telling you this..
Loving you fearlessly,
