The three wise children would like to know what I want for Christmas. I haven't thought all that much about wanting anything because on the one hand I have too much. On the other what I still want is not available on Amazon.com.
What I want more than anything is to live in a world filled with understanding and compassion. If we didn't have to experience the painful infliction of egoic manipulations of angry, sad and lost people, I would be happier.
Every time I see someone doing something for another with no expectation of return, my soul swells. I guess I would like a little more of that.
I wish that more people would see that their neighbors, their animals and their earth are all a part of them- just as important as they are. This might cut down on hatred, judgment and all kinds of isms and pain.
Please be happy. Make good choices that serve your better selves. And then teach this to my grandchildren.
I wish that people would realize that they are the miracles which they seek. Enlightenment is not going to be found in a guru or doctrine, but in your own eyes, soul, heart, and self. Listen to and feel what your soul knows- don't just recite another's thoughts.
I want you to always see the wonder in each drop of dew, on each blade of grass, in every field, every day. If the twinkling of stars calls you, and if the roar of the ocean finds its way to soothe your soul, I will have enough.
These are the things that I wish for.
