Christmas. A very special birthday
Christmas marks a very special time of the year because of one very special
individualʼs birthday. Further, amazing human beings and prophets such as Buddha,
Mohammed and others have also shone a light in the darkness and led by peaceful
example. We are all blessed, every one of us, by the presence of such extraordinary
souls and human beings, not just in the moment, but for all time.
All birthdays are a special time to be thankful and grateful for all the goodness that
comes our way. It is an event that celebrates the blessings of family and loved ones. It
is an opportunity to show those we truly appreciate how dear they are to us. It is also
an opportune time to forgive, within our own hearts and souls, those who have caused
us harm and/or injury.
May this Christmas celebrate all peoples of all nations, and our united goal to achieve
world peace. May everyone everywhere be blessed with the faith, respect and love to
find amicable ways to negotiate positive resolutions to all forms of conflict. May the
whole world enjoy a peaceful, loving and truly joyous Christmas. May it always be so.
