Ghost Dancer’s New Year’s message at our local group:

LET US GIVE THANKS

As the new year dawns, let us give thanks

We have made it through a year that presented some rough spots for a lot of us

But we did make it through

Let us give thanks for:

The ones in our lives who we love, and those who love us

The roof over our heads, it may not be a McMansion, but it is our home, our refuge, our place of peace and security

The food on our tables, it may not be that offered by some swanky eatery, but it nourishes our bodies and those of our loved ones

The clothes on our backs, though they may not be haute couture, they cover us, keep us warm

Our ability to nourish our souls with our own personal choice of spiritual path

Our ability to speak our own truths

Our ability to be exactly who we are, who we want to be

The blessings small and large that fill our lives, even though we often do not recognize them when they come

Let us also remember those who are not as fortunate as we are

Let us ask Creator to watch over them, protect them and make their lives better.

It is often said in the online world that the only way to really earn at PTC sites are with referrals. That is true, but the heartbreaking part is when you lose all your referrals when the site stops paying and becomes a scam.
