At Christmas is easy to focus on what's missing in your life - people that are no longer with you, opportunities that you've missed, or dreams that you haven't yet achieved. However, there is another story which is just as valid. The story of all the things you have achieved over the past year and all the people who have come into your life and have remained in your life as well - particularly those that love and support you unconditionally. It's easy to think... "that's not enough", because your focus is often future or past orientated. But don't discount these great things in your life.

They say that those who are given a disability in this life are the fortunate ones because they have the gift of love of life. They appreciate a lot more than others and are even said to be more enlightened spiritually as a result of this gift.
Take the opportunity this Christmas to put your desires in perspective. YES .... they may enhance parts of your life, but if you look closely you will see you have many wonderful things in your life RIGHT NOW that you might just be neglecting.
