Come On, Eileen….
These people round here
Wear beaten down eyes sunk
In smoke dried faces
They’re so resigned to what their fate is
But not us (no not ever)
But not us (not ever)
May the Christmas and Holiday Season remind us to love others, and judge not lest ye be judged. To listen more then we talk, and to try to be good people even when it is hard. When we are angry or don’t understand the actions of others, instead of causing them grief and sadness, perhaps reach out and try to have a civil conversation with them. Don’t listen to idle gossip, or worse, spread slanderous words about others. Often times, one finds they don’t have all (or any) of the facts in a given situation. Talk with the ones you love if they matter to you, resolve your worries. I hope this holiday season brings you peace and love, and maybe this year will be the one that mends fences.
And for those of you who are facing hard times, and difficult situations or people- take heart, and surround yourselves with those who love, respect, and understand you. The world is a hard place, too full of hate and sadness- don’t put yourself in bad situations or with those that will tear you down. Stand strong, and stand down from hate and haters. John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled…
(Bring On The Rain)
Another day has almost come and gone
Can’t imagine what else could go wrong
Sometimes I’d like to hide away somewhere and lock the door
A single battle lost but not the war (’cause)
Tomorrow’s another day
And I’m thirsty anyway
So bring on the rain
It’s almost like the hard times circle ’round
A couple drops and they all start coming down
Yeah, I might feel defeated,
And I might hang my head
I might be barely breathing – but I’m not dead, no (’cause)
I’m not gonna let it get me down
I’m not gonna cry
And I’m not gonna lose any sleep tonight (’cause)
Tomorrow’s another day
And I am not afraid
So bring on the rain
You are absolutely right. Always love each other and live in peace. Sometimes it is always good to listen and be there for one another. Christmas is a good time to come together and enjoy each others company. Thanks for sharing this amazing post.
I wonderful message to remember this time of year!
Great post! Reminds us all to be grateful and to try to make the world a better place for each other.
Wow! Sam that is so true don’t let others tear you down. There will always be haters in the world but if we look hard enough there are good people too. Just like Lucy said people that hate and hold on to hate will will hurt more than people that let go and just live will find that they can enjoy life a lot better and better yet be happy in life..
I hope you have a wonderful Merry Christmas..
Sam, if things get crazy and we get upset at people the world whatever..just remember all the things you are grateful for and believe me it will put a smile on your face. Hugs my friend.
Well said! Life is far to short to harbor ill will. It cause more hurt than good. Hate is like cancer, it ravages even the good and living in judgement of others really is just a reflection of your character.
Live and let live.
Thank you for the reminder! Merry Christmas my friend may the season bless you with peace and all the riches of the Kingdom!
thanks lucy 🙂 i hope you have a happy one as well. we could all use some calm in our lives 🙂
