Reaching Dreams
I speak of creating a vision for your life. A goal that you can keep focused on and move towards. A friend of mine does that with her music. She is a singer and songwriter; doing what she loves and staying focused on her goals.
Recently she released a new Christmas album titled "Snowflakes, Prayers and Memories" that is a perfect early gift to listen to during this holiday season. It may seem like a 'shameless plug' for her efforts, but the efforts of others and building support of another persons dreams is a very good thing for each of us to do.

As you move through your own life, looking out towards a horizon upon which your vision awaits; know that there will be people entering your life to help. The people that come in and out of your life will have an impact. You have that ability to impact others, the lives of others that you move through. Share something with that person, help them along on their journey.
Tis the season and reaching out to others with love and support will do so much for them. What gets returned to you may seem imperceptible, but it is there.

Final Days
"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year." - Charles Dickens
December 1 is the 335th day of the year or 336th in leap years. This means that there are only 30 days remaining until the end of the year. Only 30 days left to finish those New Year resolutions set way back on January 1.
Astronomical terms have the seasons begin at the solstices and equinoxes. In a conventional United States calendar, Winter begins on 21 December, the winter solstice.
In meteorological terms, the seasons are determined by temperature. So, in meteorology terms, winter begins in the Northern Hemisphere on December 1; summer beginning of course in the Southern Hemisphere.
The thing to consider is that Christmas is nearing and the calendar year is getting close to the end. With only 30 days left, how did you conduct your year?
Did you accomplish what you wanted?
Did you make life a little bit better for those you came in contact with?
Use these final days of the year 2008 to prepare for the coming holiday. But also use this time to reflect on what you might still be able to accomplish. The new year will bring new promises and new resolutions. So complete what you set out to do this year and finish the year strong.
