Whether you want to complain about the week of Christmas and Christmas being too much about materialism. The facts remain the same.

It is celebrated worldwide by people of many religions.

It is a time where the evil ones have to live almost the entire week with their panties twisted up because it is just hard to hurt people this week.

Even those with delusions of grandeur or cowardess find it hard to not be happy as they are surrounded by millions of people celebrating life and each other.

We should remember at this time how hard it must have been for Jesus to wander around trying to teach the beastly about love, kindness, brotherhood, Justice and mutual caring.

To try and remind people that the little dramas they dream up or try to apply against others has little real value compared to the power of giving, caring and sharing.

Even those that are filled with covertness or covetness will be set aback many times this week as they are surprised by the many kind gestures they encounter not only this week but for some societies the entire season.

Almost all challenges are easier and the hurdles seem lower. That my friends is the power of love and the exposing of the need of all of mankind for brotherhood and kindness that awakens joy in even the most cynical of us.

Even the bad news belles that habitually spew out the doings and evil deeds of mankind in the mainstream media will be mysteriously set aback this week as for some reason they realize that selling that drama is somehow no longer quite important enough.

So please remember that a lot of people for centuries and even now are doing a lot of work to try and remind us the power of goodness and the ridiculousness and silliness of badness.

As your body produces a couple of million cells every second of every day to keep you alive and well so can learning the power of kindness and joy work for you every second of every day.

Remembering that we are all born similarly and the choices that we make are based hugely on what we see done and behavior that we can more easily out of laziness duplicate, the real life and challenge is to blow off what is easier and do the things that will benefit us all instead of hurt us all. And remembering that hurting one hurts us all.

So as we celebrate life this week maybe we should also remember that it is about the joy of life, the justice that makes it all work honestly and fairly which results in the showing of mutual caring for all of life and all of mankind regardless of race, religion, color or creed.

And – Let’s not forget to Thank Jesus

God Bless You as you seek to spread joy, love and happiness throughout this marvelous time.

Merry Christmas and Have a Wonderful New Year.
