What's the Point

I've been vexed this Christmas, waiting to get the so-called "right" gifts for people. The typical questions always appear. Is it personal enough? Did I spend enough? It it cheesy? Do I really want to go broke over christmas? On and on it goes, as I continue to check items and participate in Christmas mecca. But then...

On Tuesday, I got a call from Ben, my nephew that my sister is in the hospital. The love of her life died 5 months ago, stricken by cancer. Instantly I was worried. I've heard many stories about when someone loses their "soul-mate" they feel as though they cannot go on. That's my fear for her. And it was then that I remembered. Yes, it really is wonderful to receive gifts and have a little time off, but in truth what makes this season is that we are all here and have the opportunity to share "Life" together. Please do not lose contact with that fundemental truth. Stay here in the moment. We need each other, not just today, but every day.

I Love and Believe in the Buddha that you are,
