Missing Or Giving?
This is Vissoie, Switzerland.
Our daughter and son-in-law have a restaurant here.
Isn’t it beautiful?
We missed our visit with them this year. We are not even able to go to California to celebrate Christmas with our son and his family there. I bet we are not alone. Many of you are missing your visits with your family this Christmas, too.
What are you missing?

Like this sad looking dog, we can sit around and look all mopey.
We can focus on what we’re missing.
Or we can go to Ann Kaplow’s blog this morning,
try focusing on the positive,
and answer her question,
“Can you find something to celebrate in today’s images?”
Ann KoplowThe Year(s) of Living Non-Judgmentally
Celebrate the fact that even though we feel the darkness of this Coronavirus and the isolation caused by this pandemic, we also can experience the LIGHT! The Light still shines – and we can reflect it!
Let us not focus
On the things we are missing
But on our blessings

Basic needs are met
And we have great resources
Enough to share them
When your needs are met
Leave the reptilian brain
And share your great smile
Food, clothing, shelter –
Not all people are so blessed.
Take these for granted?
No! Let’s treasure them.
Now we can go beyond them –
Reach out to others.
You have love to give
You have compassion to give
And you have kindness
Focus on giving
Blessings are overflowing
Share them with others
As long as you give
Know your cup will be refilled
You can’t out-give God!
In this weary world
People long for what you have
Share your love – give faith!
Have a little faith
Not in the things of this world
But in the True Light
Take the LOVE He gives
And let that love shine through you
Give a little FAITH!
Thanks for visiting JanBeek today.
Have a blessed Thursday.
Count your blessings!
See ya tomorrow.
