My dear<\/p>\n
Good season to be catching up with old friends!<\/p>\n
Thanks for your Christmas mail greetings and blessings.<\/p>\n
Now for my somewhat belated Christmas\/New Year mail… here goes!<\/p>\n
Open the attachment. It is a sombre jazz version of a popular Christmas carol. I really think that the soul stirring comforting rhythm of smooth cool jazz is environment friendly!!<\/p>\n
Another wonderful Christmas\/New Year season. As we surround ourselves with the sparkle of joyous celebration we need to take a moment off to think about the new born Christ child and what his birth message is for us today.<\/p>\n
The big sin today is our disregard for the environment.<\/p>\n
Paradise, as God made it, is brutalised by man.<\/p>\n
And in destroying nature we destroy one another and ourselves.<\/p>\n
The Christ child comes to save us.<\/p>\n
He comes to teach us to care for the earth<\/p>\n
so that the earth will provide and care for us.<\/p>\n
He saves us from ourselves for ourselves.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nativity scene: net Photo montage: terryq<\/p>\n
nature cool fresh calm serene<\/p>\n
leaves abundant glowing green<\/p>\n
pure open skies breeze blessed air<\/p>\n
environment embraced by care<\/p>\n
earth beautiful his grace denied<\/p>\n
by man and machine brutalised<\/p>\n
forests felled and rivers stained<\/p>\n
by greed and lust for power unchained<\/p>\n
he comes, reveals how earth must be<\/p>\n
as Father wills it reverently<\/p>\n
peace on earth will be, will stay<\/p>\n
his care, his love will show the way.<\/p>\n
terryq: Christmas 2013<\/p>\n
Christmas love & blessings\u2026<\/p>\n
New Year joy & peace!<\/p>\n
Understandably, peaceful times for me. The college is closed and everyone is away doing their own thing. Me too… more time for my pottering and mails and garden.<\/p>\n
My liturgically inclined lily plant is doing it again. The first time it bloomed was at Easter this year. Just now it is blooming again… almost as if it knows that there is an occasion for it to celebrate.<\/p>\n
I will send you pictures the next time…<\/p>\n
The Christmas family lunch at my brother\u2019s place was out of this world! His son had just returned from London with a crate of goodies that were generously spread out for consumption. Plus, of course, top-of-the-pops Christmas fare cooked to delicious perfection by my talented family. Unfortunately there was just that much I could tuck in!<\/p>\n
It ended even better than I expected. My nephew gifted me a hamper (small size) of excellent chocolates which I shall attend to systematically as this season of plenty rolls along to other delights in the coming year 2014!<\/p>\n
Other little Christmas season happenings took place as the days passed by \u2013 family gatherings and weddings and visits from old friends coming back to catch up on nostalgia and \u201cbonhomie\u201d. Goodies pouring in and other wonderfuls so typical of this season.<\/p>\n
And then, of course, the New Year 2014… begun already<\/p>\n
My new diary is spruced, customised and ready.<\/p>\n
I am looking forward as usual!<\/p>\n
You take care and have a glorious, wonderful, caring season too!<\/p>\n
And super wonders all through 2014.<\/p>\n
Lots of love, Terry<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
