I will post it again :)  This piece was written in 2009.  I was involved in a conversation on another forum where people were debating whether or not Earth was a living conscious.  Amazingly I discovered not all New Agers believe she is conscious.  Which is strange to me, but it is what it is.  So I went into my usual forays into my mind... at that time..

Somehow, not only for Christmas

but all the long year through,

And the more you spend in blessing
