Rise to the Occasion

Christmas is a time of year when children get to make a wish.  It coincides with year end and New Year's Resolutions!  Time to take stock?

We can live day by day, as a wise 96 year old advises, welcoming each new day with positive thoughts and gratitude for the day.

We can have hopes and dreams for our future and the future of others...as Martin Luther King did in his infamous "I have a Dream" speech.

Overall we suffer - each to varying degrees, and we achieve success, those of our wish list and some unexpeted.

Taking stock at the end of the year and/ or during Christmas - is truly a way of re-evaluating our lives - understanding what is important to us - perhaps thinking about what is important to the Universe - and, in essence - rising to the occasion of our lives -metaphorically speaking.
