To me, Christmas is more than a holiday and more than the day on which we celebrate the birth of Jesus. It is the day on which I truly attempt to live up to the wisdom that God bestowed upon us and that Jesus defined for all time through his love and eternal friendship.
On Christmas, I spend time with my family but I also consider deeply the meaning and truth of Christ, God and what it means to believe in them. I know that all that I hold true of each is not true as much has been done over the centuries to present truth in a false light and even to falsify the truth all together. However, I find that if we are willing to accept the basic facts that we know to be true and accept that we are certainly wrong about a great many things we THINK we know about God and Jesus, then our pure humility is enough to earn forgiveness for our failure to glean the truth. One day, we will know the full story of the Bible and what events really were and what they meant. Until then, I will continue to believe and seek the truth as I may. Until the truth find me or death take me, I hold to that. That is what Christmas is to me. God bless and Merry Christmas all!

Wishes for a very Merry Christmas to all the readers here at Balance of Power!
Thanks for making our blog the success that it is. Thanks to for sharing your opinions, your views and even when we differ from time to time... thank you for your *VOICE* because only in the meetings of great minds are we truly able to discern the good from the bad, the important from the not so important and the value of individuality as well as solidarity.
Here in our home, we are spending a very quiet and reflective day. This has been the most memorable Christmas, that I think, we've ever had!
This year, we shared one gift with one another on Christmas Eve. For each of the family I prepared "A Christmas Carol" gift.
In the box were three gifts.. one that was representative of Past.. one of the Present and one of the Future.
It was a great way to pass on heirlooms, traditions, things that we sometimes hold on to until we are gone and our loved ones are trying to sort through who should have had what and what was the inherent meaning of it. Present--each person got a recap of this most astounding year--with its wonders and its heartbreaking moments along with a shiny new 2005 penny. As I said to them each, as long as we have this one penny and each other.. we have MORE then some have today. For the future.. a blank sheet of paper with but one thought on it.. for the future is TRULY ours for the writing.
The caption: "I shall pass this way but once.. if there is any good that I may do, let me do it NOW.. for I will not pass this way again."
I share these with you in the hope that perhaps as the year goes by--you might embrace as well this astounding gift for your own families.. truly it made Christmas Eve one that not a one of us will forget in our home!
Blessings of the newborn King!

The period during which a developing fetus is carried within the uterus. In humans, pregnancy
averages 266 days (38 weeks) from conception to childbirth. Traditionally, pregnancy duration
is counted from the woman's last menstrual period, which adds roughly 2 weeks to gestational
age. This is how physicians arrive at a pregnancy length of 40 weeks (280 days).

a woman, or the feminine in men and women, seeks to share deep awareness of the world
in a sacralized communion. the presence of soft candle light, wild flowers, and the
rituals of dressing for the occasion are simply metaphors acknowledged and “lived out”
in honor of the moment. in honor of life. in honor of shared awareness of the infinite
in a moment.
