Working on a public holiday and a complete day Saturday, had left Marie so exhausted, it was an effort to stay focus for mass this morning. Homilies were some thing she always enjoyed but this morning, all she heard was the sin of gluttony... maybe because she ate so much on Friday and Saturday that food was still on her mind. And exhaustion has a way, of closing your mind and ears to even the most inspiring sermon and words.
.
It is nearing that time of the year again when festive fills the air. This year Marie shall skip the Christmas Tree, she loves putting up for as long as she could remember. She shall take a little salt from the wisdom of the church and mix it in her coffee and tea. Christmas is the baby Jesus and not the splendour of the Christmas tree and the festive, nor is it Santa Claus. Christmas, this year, will be a time of healing and examining of self, focus, direction and bonding with God. . And yes, Christmas, is a time to rest her tired physic and spent time just to smell the roses...catching up with family and friends, minus the food.
