Choosing JOY !

When you walk up to my door

you will find the same thing as if you looked into my heart.

You will find

the joy that I have created.

My holiday mantra has been “Do it with joy, or don’t do it.”

That has been a challenge every single day.

But I am arriving at the end of the holiday prep. time so much more joyful for having made that choice over and over again.

I am over-joyed with the idea of spending time with my family and friends during the holidays.

I am joyful about the gifts and the giving that I have done wherever, and however I can.

I am filled with joy and gratitude at the abundance of all that David and I have.

We really need for nothing.

Most of all, the joy that comes from the amazing amount of Love that I have in my life is filling my heart, and I know it is shining outwards to be shared.

In Joy, I wish you Love, Light and Peace

in all seasons,

and for all time, Beautiful Ones.

    Your words are profound, Ms. Rock-It! It is a matter of choice whether we choose love, joy and peace each moment.

    As always you know how to spread and sprinkle joy -- your door welcome says it all. I'm so glad that you were able to meet your strongest wishes to accept, to let it be and to find joy where you went this season...and I know you will continue to the end of the season and into the new year.

    My joy is having you in my life...and I wish you and David and your extended family a most joyful, joyous Christmas and blessings of joy and possibility for the new year.

    Love you ♥
