Did you get Everything you wanted for Christmas?
Did you get Everything you wanted for Christmas?
Puppetji asks, "Who is wanting? Who desires the need to want? Who wants and desires the need to want to be needy? The ego. The truth of who you are needs nothing."

The Sign of Christmas is a Star
See it not outside yourself
Joy of Christmas,
for the time of Christ
is meaningless apart from Joy.
The sign of Christmas is a star.
See it not outside yourself,
but shining in
the Heaven within.

Favorite Christmas Movies
Favorite Christmas Movies 2009
What are your favorite Christmas movies? The stories that leave you thoughtful and joyful. Last year I wrote about three such movies. This year, I'm going to add another to the list. Again, this year's pick is not really a Christmas movie, but it does leave you thoughtful.
Detailed descriptions from last year's choices, of Christmas and Course-themed movies, Babette's Feast, The Princess Bride, and Matter of Heart are in the 2008 Christmas blog post. I'll give a brief description of each one here and add the recommendation for this year at the end. Yes! I want to Read the rest of this post ...
The Christmas Poem
The Christmas Poem (1969)
He is God’s Son. You recognize His touch
In universal gentleness. His love
Extends to everyone. His eyes behold
The Love of God in everything He sees.
No words but those His Father’s Voice dictates
Can reach His ears. His hands forever hold
His brothers’, and His arms remain outstretched
In holy welcome. Would you look on Him
And hear Him calling you this Christmas day?
Behold, He offers you His eyes to see,
His ears to listen to His Father’s Voice,
His hands to hold His brothers’, and His arms
To reach to Him as He would reach to you.
You are as like to Him as He to God,
And You to God because you are like Him.
All that He offers you is but your own.
Accept His gifts to you this Christmas day,
That you who are as God created you
May come to recognize the Christ in you.
