Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas....<p>I realize that we have all had our share this year. I realize that many of us still fight, struggle, cry, persevere, get angry....
I realize many are faced with children, in laws, distant families, break ups, break downs, melt downs...
I realize that many of us search, seek, find, discard, let go, crash and burn
I realize that the battle continues for many here...BUT...<p>My wish for all of you is that, somehow, someway, you let it go, even if for awhile and remember a happier time. Get lost in what Christmas meant to you when it really meant something. Revel in the fact your children love you, your family still believes in you, and your friends stand by you...even if its just one!! Sink into a chair and take in the sites, smells, and memories, dreams and hopes...Santa Claus really does still exist...somewhere inside everyone of us, believe it or not...and if he doesn't, then start there..with YOUR imagination. (I still believe...and nobody can ever tell me different!!)Go back to that one time when you were who you always believed you could be...and celebrate...celebrate yourself into a "Christmas" state of mind. It can be done...YOU can do it...and you deserve it. For all that you are going through, all that we share in here...each one of you is strong and brave and deserve Christmas...even if for a few hours, even if just for yourself. Put on some Manheim Steamroller, or Kenny G, or any other Christmas type music, turn the lites down low, make some coffee or tea (mine with Baileys please!!... [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] ), and enjoy what this time of year CAN mean to you. Never give up...never ever give up!! You can do it!<p>That is my wish for each and every one of you this season....Merry Christmas my MB friends and family! May the love and joy of the season find you, even if only in some small way!<p>*Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.*<p>Love,
Trueheart

Just another Xmas present from me to you all...if any of you have heard the 911 version of Silent Night, you know how powerful it is. As one that was not personally touched by the disaster, in that I did not know anyone involved, I do share the pain of the loved ones lost...especially at the holidays...here is a radio station link that contains this very powerful song...<p>www.kiimfm.com<p>Merry Christmas...and say a prayer for those struggling with their greatest loss.<p>*Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.*<p>Trueheart
