GREETING FRIENDS AT CHRISTMAS

What a great time of the year to take the opportunity to send Christmas greetings to friends, adding some family news and best of all including that part of the greetings that can include what a blessing it has been to have had them as friends or relatives. You may not have seen them for many years but when the music of Christmas bells ring, the memory box you hold in your heart also rings in joyful silence. Receiving them by postal mail, e-mail, texting or telephone, memories of their caring and love flood every part of your being. Sometimes pictures are included and that is always a bonus.

Messages of life’s special events ripple past in your river of life leaving in their wake the memories of the words of encouragement you received at that moment in your life. Knowing how it helped lead you on and how in turn you were then able to pass to others the hope they needed that would open new horizons for them.

Helen K in Phoenix, Arizona, Barbara M in Palm Springs, Anna E in Kamloops, Cindy W in Olds Alberta, Lin D in St. George, and Stephanie D in Vernon have popped from my memory box today bringing special memories. I think I’ll take you with me to dreamland tonight and we’ll have a Dreamland Christmas Party.
