Dear Yogis,

We are getting ready for Christmas.  It is just around the corner.  Please remember, it is only one day.  It will come and it will go, and unless someone proposes marriage to you at Christmas Dinner, it will blend in to all the other Christmasses.

Relax, enjoy the day, and remember what it means.   It is not an excuse for stores to make money, it commemorates the birth of a person who for almost the first time, reminds you that your responsibility for the world is in your hands.  That we are all connected.  (People still are not listening).

If you get a chance to wander into a Church, the stained glass window I have painted here is in St.Mary’s Anglican Church in Woodend.  “Jesus the Light of the World”. He is standing near a door which He is waiting for you to open.

Please take care – there is a lot of sickness around.  Flu, Covid, tummy bugs and so in.  Christmas is a time when we could inadvertently catch or spread infections.  If you are unwell STAY HOME.  Just because it is Christmas does not make it “safe”.    I remember a Miss Marple mystery about a Christmas party that a lady attended even though she had German measles.  She was determined to go and wore an extra layer of make-up to cover the spots.  She spent time talking to a guest who was pregnant and thereby caused a child to be born with catastrophic birth defects. (an extreme example, but relevant).   As I said.  Take care.  Not just of yourself, please think of others.

WHATS ON.
