Good morning everyone…
Merry Christmas!!!
I hope you’re all sat with your feet up, with a nice slice of Christmas cake in one hand and a brew of your choice in the other!
Because it’s time now to relax and appreciate all that effort you put into making yesterday so special for others 🙂
Well done you.
Now, the weather here in the UK has been old fashioned winter style, with plenty of Christmassy snow and, somehow, the whole energy of Christmas has been more modest than last year.
In fact, it’s made a refreshing change and one to be enjoyed all the more…
Okay then…
This Christmas message is about acknowledging others and what they have done for us.
For there are no accidents ever and you often find inspiration, or the prompt you need, comes from unexpected sources.
In fact, you may have changed another’s course in life yourself totally without knowing it…
But if you do get to hear that you inspired a life changing event, it’s fabulous and uplifting for you 🙂
It makes you feel more connected to the whole universe 🙂
So with that in mind, I’m going to share some lovely feedback that I received recently and how it prompted this response…
The email read…
Q… Wow! Thank you Judith…
…For the clip on Validation, I thought it was very moving.
I’m here studying and a bit glum as I’m struggling with this assignment thinking – ‘will I ever be good enough’?
Even if I can make people feel good, I’ll be making a difference, which is all I want to do…
Thank you!
And my answer…
A… This email got me thinking and I remembered the story of the teacher who acknowledged all of her senior students with a ribbon that said…
‘Who YOU are, makes a difference’…
So, if you really want to make a difference in this world… just be YOU!
For that is the only person YOU can be!
You are a unique individual… 🙂
And just being YOU, can be enough to change another person’s life forever…
Simply because YOU stayed steadfast and true whilst they had a bit of a wobble for a moment 🙂
You see, a person can motivate us, inspire us or simply share a smile in passing at a most crucial moment…
…beautifully changing our lives…
…and we never acknowledge what happened or let them know.
So right now, whilst I am remembering… 🙂
I would like to acknowledge ALL of YOU who have had such an impact on my life 🙂
You have shared your grief and sorrow and despair, and many of you have laughed with me and shared a joke 🙂
And it’s been a two way street of course, with me sharing my ups and downs along the way too.
But together, through it all, we have grown and all of us have become ‘more of who we are’…
So…
Thank you for sharing and thank you for caring…
And THANK YOU… for making ME, the woman I am today.
Without YOU, I would not be ME… together we are One 🙂
Perfick!
Judith 🙂
