Posted on January 4, 2008

I got a great email from a reader named Gabriel and he wanted me to share this with everyone. Thank you Gabriel for taking the time to right this and I wish you all the best in the New Year…

To you from Gabriel…

Here is a short inspired New Year’s message that I would like to share with the readership of this site. Hope you find a place to post it!

Congratulations with the New Year: An open letter to all readers

If any year should be The Year, this is definitely IT! This is the year of change, this is when I find my path in life again. This is when with a clear vision, renewed energy and determination, with an ever improving health, encouragement, greater strength, growing faith and above all, a new and intimate relationship to God, that invites its presence, protection, guidance and its blessing; this is when I start my wonderous journey into the realm of perfect ideas.

The divine design of my life now comes to pass. This is the year of the NOW. Learning from the past, thanking for the blessing that the future holds in store, I bring my whole attention on the present. There is no more room left for wishful thinking. I enter the dimnsion of I Am. Whatever I aim for and desire happens today, right now, in my heart and mind, and nothing else matters. It is the first and most important step that we ought to take in order for things to change.

To live, to fully savour life is to take every breath, cease every moment with gusto, as if there is no tomorrow. For there is no tomorrow. Learn to notice and appreciate the small things in life for they lead the way to the greater events, gifts and changes. Find a way to express your gratitude for them. Always remember: you bring about what you think about and thank about. So cherish your thoughts too, be weary of what you feed your mind with too. You are much more than what you eat. Body-Mind-Spirit. Take care of nurture them all. This is a daily duty, not only when problems arise.

And finally, remember the Golden Rule of life – treat everyone the way you want to be treated (including yourself), for you shall reap as you saw and get as you give. But rather give before you get, and do it bcause you want to, without expecting anything in return. Just think about the time you might need help and how you would like there to be someone who is ready to give. That’s how we get through in life – by giving and by helping each other.

Make an effort to rise above the blinding spirit of competition, fear of loss, failure and survival. You can do far better than that. It’s called maturation and spiritual growth. What stands behind giving and helping is the highest spiritual principle – the Principle of Love. It is what makes the world go round (not money!). Growing spiritually we come to realise that there is only Love in this world and that ultimately, everything works out for the best.

Wish you all a wonderful New 2008!

God bless you!
