Christmas in Your Heart
"You can create what you want in life; first you have to imagine
it clearly. Imagine your ideal scene," said Marc Allen.
How do you use your imagination to transform your life on this
special day?
You can use this day to create Christmas in your heart. This is
a way of being that emulates the vision of the Christ. His
entire vision was to teach people unconditional love.
In this unhappy world, your shift in attitude will raise the sea
for all of humankind. All it takes is for you to change the way
your own consciousness ripples across the surface of the ocean
of humanity.
What would happen if from this day on you took to heart the
Kantian imperative and acted as if your example influenced
everyone? Imagine if from this day on you acted only in the name
of the highest good.
Christmas happens once a year, but you can evoke Christmas
within all year long and into the next one, too. It is an
attitude of joviality, unconditional love, and humanitarian
interest. Furthermore, do it without expectation of reward.
If Scrooge could do it, so can you. Is an attitude of goodwill
to others really that difficult?
Nor is this an exclusive ideal reserved for just those in the
Christian tradition. Unconditional lovingness affects everyone.
It crosses all narrow boundaries of "them" and "us." It sees no
enemies anywhere. It advocates peace, not hatred.
Envision if meeting YOU was a
transformative experience.
Strangers would automatically pick up on your vibration of joy
and forgiveness. They would, in fact, become aware of their own
spiritual essence, which is pure and unsullied by the world. And
you would not have spoken a word. They would just KNOW.
What would happen to your world if you stopped resisting love
and even helped strangers in trouble without fear of getting
hurt?
In all of time, and for all of humankind, you, in your humble
little way, would be having an IMPACT. It would be so subtle
that not even you would be aware of it.
So what is it that I am suggesting?
I am inviting you to go forth from this special day on with a
desire to become a person of unconditional loving kindness.
You will not only transform yourself but the world around
you...and the hope, the joy, and the ultimate purpose of
humankind will become obvious again.
Is this an impractical suggestion?
Has anyone ever done it before?
What about your dog.
Can you really tell me that you as a human being with your
impressive intellect cannot replicate the good-heartedness of a
dog?
