This is a very special Christmas season as the Christmas spirit grows stronger with greater and greater open hearted love and caring with each passing day….
This about sums it up Chinmayan. Speaking of the spirit of Christmas, being thankful every day of our lives, not just on Christmas. It’s a tough message to convey in our society for the fact that negativity wreaks in this world. Too many lose hope, too many give up. How do we inspire those who refuse to believe in themselves, never mind our Creator? I thank our lord for the bright white light from Heaven above. Every single day since a child, (born an old soul) I knew there was more to life than just being born into my family. God blessed me with such empathy, that I can feel someone’s emotions from far away. My mission from the start, was to help people. The strangest thing, I’ve helped many but not myself. Putting myself on the back burner most of my life, to help or appease someone, I’m guilty but I had a rude awakening. It’s my time, this I know but why does it make me feel selfish to want to put myself first?! This had to be the toughest lesson I learned. I prayed, meditated, questioned why why why?…”You are here to spread the word through your kind heart but if you don’t take care of yourself, you will not be good for anyone!” This was the message I received from Spirit and am forever grateful to be chosen. Thank you Chinmayan, I loved all the Christmas stories you posted. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to read them all for I hosted Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! Blessings to you…
Thank you dear friend for the heart full comment! I hear you! Addressing these issues is the main purpose of all my training, practices, prayer and personal spiritual journey. A major opening and turning point for me was receiving the teachings about the absolute necessity of learning how to love myself and taking this on as a main focus in my own practice and in my teaching this cornerstone of everything else to my students and now through my newsletter. It is not selfish at all, because we can’t do much for anyone else until we have developed an enduring and growing real LOVE relationship with our own self. When I do, this love and appreciation and acceptance of who I AM is the doorway to truly loving and supporting others. Loving my self means I take full responsibility for being the source of my experience and so much more. I will write more later as my partner is calling me to help make breakfast! Thanks for being here with me!
Your appreciation and encouragement means a lot to me! Your loving support actually helps me to keep on growing and improving for that is the power of even a little bit of Love shared and expressed between heartful beings.
