Christmas greetings

May Christmas bring you all the love, peace, joy, happiness, and all the blessings of the season!
Christ is born!

peace, joy and serenity

Ëvery breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy and serenity." I just love this quote from Thich Nhat Hanh. It reminds me of the power of stillness and serenity in our life.

This photo is another early morning scene from my favorite island, Boracay. The morning is so still and the colors are muted and golden. The fishermen must be experiencing such a blissful morning.

peace within

This quote from William Hazlitt is another way of saying that we cannot have peace with others if we are not at peace with ourselves.

The photo is an early morning scene with everything so still and at peace. This is taken from my favorite island, Boracay, here in the Philippines.

Christmas bells

Just like Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, I also love listening to bells. Peace on earth and goodwill to men on this Christmas day!

The photo is a pink flower shaped like bells.

the heart of Christmas

I love this wish from Ada V. Hendricks. It's so full of positive energy and the true spirit of Christmas!

The photo is a flower I found in a friends house. Unfortunately, I do not know its name.

Let not your heart be troubled

This verse from John is so reassuring. The words "let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid"  fills me with hope and confidence that God is always with us.

The photo is an early morning with threatening storm clouds and a group of boaters practicing for a dragon boat festival. The boaters asked me if I wanted to go with them for a ride but I had to say "no" because I was afraid of my camera getting wet. Sigh! It would have been an experience!
