"Recently I watched a beautiful old Christmas movie 'It's A Wonderful Life' with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed. If you get a chance, it is worth seeing again...a great reminder for all of us and our wonderful life. The story shows how this man gave to others unconditionally since he was a little boy. He supported his community each day consciously and he found ways to stand up for others. You can see him at different stages of his life, stop and make the choice for the highest good of all.

He finds himself in a very desperate, dark time that pulls him into self-loathing. He lost FAITH in himself and his life. I don't want to give away the story but, because of his goodness and heartfelt living, it did all come back to support him once he moved out of his judgments and negative beliefs.

The antidote to FEAR is FAITH and no one can give it to us....the gift of FAITH is waiting and it is up to us to make the choice. Today and everyday find a way to move into your loving and compassionate heart and remember that you are important to each person in your world. Continue to create Your Wonderful Life!"
