What the holidays are all about...

"There is a Buddhist saying that the biggest cause of suffering is the socially induced hallucination of the seperate self.  Such a self does not exist.  You are an individual only as a result of a confluence of relationships."  -- Deepak Chopra

Hope

Have you ever felt like your throat is about to burst because you have something to say but you can't even wrap your mind around it?  Well this is how I feel in this moment.  I just finished a weekend of aromatherapy training.  It was the most life-changing learning experience I've encountered in my life thus far.  I guess I just want to take a moment to tell the world, or more realistically the 2.5 people that read this, that THERE IS HOPE.  You may have to travel around the world, and carry pains that stretch you to a breaking point, and trudge a journey with sharp winds opposing every step, and even walk through Hell itself…BUT there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.  I am grateful for the hope that was infused into my life today.  I know it was a gift from God and an answer to countless prayers.  God never leaves us alone, even though it may feel like it when our limits are stretched.   Hope is light and light is God.
