A WORD FOR CHRISTMAS

It's once again that week that leads to the Christian devalued tradition of Christmas. How many turkeys will die you ask me: We don't have a clue, may be they will not have an appetite for protest. The protest shall obviously be confined to Turkey Street,(lol) some Londoners will know there is an overground train station of the same name! Christmas is or at least should be a time to reflect on the year gone by and to contemplate on what lies ahead in the new year. We must be wise to the wiles of those who wish to antagonise us. Those who intend to cause strife in the name of religion,any religion. For those of my readers, who this morning are waking up healthy and well in all aspects, you must thank God that you are here and will be at least for another day. This message is not sent out today out of self-aggrandisement,its meant to propagate a message of love and compassion. It's a prayer to all mankind from whichever continent you are; be peaceful and preach PEACE, be kind,patient and LOVING! There are so many tribulations that we as humans face! We should endeavour to live a better life, to help others less privilehged than us. We should remember to forgive those who offended us, love our foes without fuss. We should be truthful and honest at least to ourselves. Never forget that you can never love others until you love thyself.We should stifle the notion that we are owed or we have more rights than others, because when we think we are better or have greater right we inculcate in us the need to trumple and oppress others.This can be the the result of upbringing or our environment per se. We must emancipate ourselves from the shackles and afflictions of the past. While we live, we must let others live as we would desire to live. May the good Lord bless us all and a happy and prosperous 2012. NB. Apologies to my esteemed readers that this blog is a month old. The excuse is that i was having a wonderful time chasing turkeys1
