It's a few days since we celebrated the most holy day of Christmas here at the Center of Light.  The culmination of the Season of Light brings with it the cultural let down of another season of consuming with less than the fulfillment of true love that everyone hopes for in this season.  When I look back to the world at large after focusing on my family and spiritual community, I see all the same things....wars, economic strife, hurt and angry people, and on and on.  How will it be different in this New Year?  What can we resolve as a people that will bring more peace and light into the earth and help us to solve the many problems that humanity faces?  I am dedicating myself to daily acts of peace in my relating and consciously remembering and carrying the spirit of the Christ-mass in each day of the new year.  If a large number of people decided to become conscious and peaceful, there could be effected a wave of peace on the planet to overcome the darkness and negation of the masses that are hurting and hurtful.  I continue to hold out hope for humanity...for a way of life that allows for the opportunity for all good things to come into manifestation in the earth.  I support this hope with my prayers and my actions and I joyfully join with others of like mind and heart in doing so.  Blessings upon you as you step forth into a New Year with hope and a commitment to peace.
