Are you that close to me? Of course you are.......Me too central Calif. ....though you are more north, I gather, and I am much older.......

Yes, the lovely rain and today, puffy clouds and blue sky....and here it is December….One could not ever have imagined that here in December there are tangerines, abundant and beautiful tangerines....who can believe there eyes!

I have orange, lime and tangerine filled trees right here my own back yard!

Blooming wonders of it all......Holy Christmas Light!

It is wonderful.

There is This Light, Yes, maybe it The Light of Christmas; It is in my Heart, It does not go out no matter when or how hard it rains, even when the electric gets knocked out and the repair guy for A T & T has come to fix my phone….

Oh, this Light still burns bright and warm and I love this Light, I love This Light....It was a lamp unto my feet in the darkest of days.....Precious Love, how good that Light was to see.... though I could but barely see its little flicker at the time, but I did see and I did follow it....and It never ceased its glow, no it did not go out in that darkness that had fallen all around…..... no it did not leave me.....

So I stayed with Light, as it prompted me to do so...My Heart knew best…..and as I trusted It, It stayed with me, it was there all the way....and now, its radiance is warm and comforting, joyful and uplifted, as it seems to hold me close, here always, and it shines its light upon my path, and it glows strong and clear …Trustworthy, It is….all the way, all the way....Now....

It seems to me that Love and Beauty is the oxygen that keeps this flame of light glowing strong....love and and… yes, maybe a wide open heart, wide open heart as big the entire universe….Letting all things in….all things…..

And here, open to it all….is where this soft gentle holy breath of life blows sweetly on through and touches my soul and lets me know I know.....

Love and Beauty the base of which this candle glows.

I love to be in love, I just love this world, this life, all that is....knowing that despite the picture before the eye there continues to be this Light...This Light that makes all pictures and images possible......I am so very grateful for all I see and all I be and I am most grateful for this Grace of Holy Light that leads me, thank you Dear Life, from the depths of my very being.....

The Wonder, The wonder of It all.....and Tangerines in December.....Love is everywhere....and It never leaves us, never.

In Joy and Peace, Joyfully, Sandy Jones .
