HAPPY CHRISTMAS

My Dear loving Brothers and Sisters

Your presence is a present to the world. You are unique and one of a kind.

Your life can be what you want it to be. Take the days just one at a time.

Count your blessings, not your troubles. You will make it through whatever

comes along. Within you are so many answers. Understand, have courage, be

strong. Do not put limits on yourself. So many dreams are waiting to be realized.

Decisions are too important to leave to chance. Reach of your peak, your

goal, and your prize. Nothing wastes more energy than worrying. The longer one carries a problem the heavier it gets. Do not take things too seriously. Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. Remember that a little love goes a long way. Remember that a lot goes forever. Remember that friendship is a wise investment. Life’s treasures are people… Together Realize that it is never too late. Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way. Have health and hope and happiness. Take the time to wish upon a star.

The king of kings is born to us. Rev. 16.19

The light of the world is born. John. 8.12

Where shall we seek for the newborn king today?

Not in the palaces, glittering dresses, sumptuous food

and colourful celebrations. Let us find among those food less, destitute,

lonely and the orphan children.

May this Christmas bring more happiness to your life and may the New Year

2009 bring YOU peace and prosperity! May the blessing and love of the Christ

child be with you now and throughout the year!! Again, my sincere love,

gratitude and thank you for who you are. I continue to count on your

prayers. With Loving regards

Your loving brother
