January 3rd - Celebrate Life
Another activity we have suggested for the Twelve Days of Christmas is to learn some new Christmas carols and hymns. Why not invite some friends in, warm up the leftover wassail, and do some singing? You could even include some of the old favorites everyone already knows while you warm up your voices.
Celebrating a special holiday never gets old, especially if you keep the spirit of that celebration alive. If it is just a materially-oriented holiday, it becomes an empty, robotic ritual. But the spirit of the celebration can enliven the heart and mind, and teach our understanding. Keep the spirit alive in your daily life, like the First Nation peoples did - celebrating Life, Family, Nature, and Spirit. To do so blesses you, your surroundings, your endeavors, and the people you meet day-to-day. We are co-creators with God - what you think, will become reality.
