i finally learned how to do a blog!

Hello to the lovely people who have signed up and joined the Gospel of Joy facebook fan club! I am so sorry i have not been reguarly writing but the technology daunted me!  Thanks to the lovely David Tensen who helped me set it up, I can now navigate around and here is my first ‘blog’ of sorts!

As we go into Christmas, try to practice compassion. Everyone in our family is fighting their own internal battle with fears of some sort,  and with all of us together again it’s easy to trigger old patterns.  With a different focus we can avoid many of the emotionally draining scenarios that leave us grateful Christmas only happens once a year!

So my tip for Christmas is to focus on being compassionate.  That means sending love to others, holding them in your heart, being patient, helping them when it is right to so do, and trying to see the world through their eyes and perceptions. There are many more ways to be compassionate but these are just a few hints! At this time of joy to the world, focus on one of the 12 pillars of joy – feel compassion for others AND yourself.

Happy , blessed Christmas to those who celebrate it and happy holidays to those who celebrate other events!
