CHRISTMAS A TIME TO SHOW LOVE. Xxoo

Posted bykaye44609b1b8fbbPosted inUncategorized

Christmas would have to be one of my favourite times of year, because I have faith in God, and relish the opportunity to give and show my love to the special people ❤ in my life.

I have already received what I wanted for Christmas. I wanted to see my friends, Russell, Susanna, Liz and Helen, and got the opportunity to spoil them a little. To show them what their love and support means to me. I don’t take friendship for granted, because I know how it feels, to feel neglected and isolated. Through my exoerience of mental health issues, I know that feeling only too well. So now I go out of my way to spread a little goodwill and cheer throughout the festive season. As I said in previous posts goodwill generates goodwill . In reality only good can come from doing good. It may not happen overnight or instantaneously, but ultimately we reap what we so.

I love getting together with my brother’s and their families over Christmas. I ❤ my niblings with all my heart ❤ and am genuinely happy to see how wonderful their lives are progressing

Not everyone I know is filled with the milk of good spirit over Christmas. Some people I know are determined to make every situation, selfishly all about them, and say only negative things about their supposed loved ones and friends. I find these people difficult to be around, and no matter hiw much goodwill I try to put into the situation, they are determined to spread illwill. Because I find the energy these people put out into the world, draining to say the least, I limit my time with them throughout the festive season and silently say a prayer for them, that maybe someday they will know the Grace of God, and show gracious loving behaviour. One can always hope for that.

I guess my advice to people not looking forward to Christmas festivities with those we find challenging, because of their illwill, is to say a silent prayer for them and cherish the time spent 🙏 with those we love, and feel grateful 🙏 and yes gracious for those who make our lives utterly pleasurable and delightful, by their very presence ❤ in our lives . Enjoy feeling their love and the love of God

As for the naysayers in our lives, limit the time they have to impact on us, and If you have to endure tine with them, wear earplugs and mentally sing Christmas carols in your mind to drown out the negativity they spread .

I wish all my readers and 😍loved one’s a very Merry 🎄 Christmas and thank you for reading my 📫 posts. May your Christmas wishes be granted, as mine already have been

  2. Hello Kaye,
    As all of us know, it has not been the best of years. This year in my family, there will be 6 empty chairs of loved ones who will not celebrate Christmas with us, and that now are resting in eternal peace. As recent as yesterday, l received sad news of a friend l have known for a very long time, lost her battle with cancer.
    I can shake my hands up in the sky and scream, WHY? WHY? And be filled with rage and anger. I refused to go into that black hole. Like you, l choose to see the light and chase rainbows. There will always be sadness, there will always be grief, however, there will always be sunshine, there will always be hope, if we choose to see it. Let this Christmas time be a year whereby, we do celebrate the joy of Christmas and what it truly means.
    That’s not to say, that we forget our grief. Certainly not. We miss our loved ones. But it is important not to be consumed by grief and negativity.
    Today was a mass for my Godmother. It was sad, but l also got to see my relatives that l have not seen in a while, and that was lovely.
    Thursday l have another funeral. It will be sad to say goodbye to my friend. But how happy l am for her that she is no longer suffering and will be guided home by the angels, and will be another star in the sky for Christmas.
    Always face the sun, and the rays of light brighten your face.

    Your posts give me such joy. Thank you Kaye.

    Susanna
