Seasons Greetings









The circling path of time,

Through starry spaces wide,

Hath turned Earth toward the Sun once more- 

And 'tis the Christmas-tide.



Toward Light and Life we move, 

With hearts refreshed we sing,

The seed-time of old Earth renewed- 

To all this message bring:



Good will to all that lives;

A waking-time of heart --

In service that the Masters teach, 

Rejoice what e'er the part.



And this-the Christ in all- 

And all men brothers be;

One Source of Light and Life and Love! 

The Soul's own radiancy!

Best wishes

IDEAS TO CONSIDER:







Be curious always! 

For knowledge will not acquire you; 

You must acquire it.







Time has a wonderful way of weeding out the trivial.







"God" is a circle, the center of which is everywhere, 

and the circumference nowhere." Pascal









To perceive the mystery of life, desire always to reach the innermost.

To perceive the limitations of things, desire always to possess them. 


Lao-tse







Prayer:



Many of us loose confidence in prayer because 

we do not recognize the answers.



We ask for strength, and God gives us difficulties.



We pray for wisdom, and God sends us problems, 

the solution of which develops wisdom. 



We plead for prosperity, and God sends us a brain and brawn.



We ask for courage, and God gives us dangers to overcome.



We ask for favors, and God gives us opportunities. 









A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one's heart -
chaff and grain together - knowing - that the gentlest of hands will take
and sift it - keep what is worth keeping, and, with the breath of kindness,
blow the rest away. Arab
Proverb







We cannot become what we need to be 

by remaining where we are. M. DuPree
