THE SECOND SUNDAY IN DECEMBER
at 7:00 p.m. around the world

ANGEL
~ as performed by Sarah McLachlan
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For the break that would make it okay
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction, a beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel, fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here
So tired of this straight line, and everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference, escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees
You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here

A CANDLE FLICKERS
....by Christine Ross in memory of Lucas Christopher Ross 1979 - 2001
A candle flickers through the night
With a gentle peaceful glow,
As shadows dance upon the wall
And memories begin to flow.
Yesterday was full of sunshine
That somehow slipped away.
And all of the tomorrows
Illuminate another day.
But today there is a candle
That will flicker through the night
And shine upon a broken heart
With a peaceful angle light.

ANGEL OF HOPE
Phoenix, Arizona
THE ANGEL CRIED
~ by Christine Ross in memory of Lucas Christopher Ross 1979 - 2001
I gazed up at the statue
As I stood there at her feet.
The Angel of Hope was saddened.
Then she began to weep.
I watched her as a teardrop
Streaked slowly down her face.
I looked around at all the names
Surrounding her in this place.
I thought how weary she must be
From carrying every child
Across the sky to heaven,
Away from us, ...for awhile.
I wondered why she was so sad.
She knew the children had a home.
It was then I realized that her tears
Were for us, ...here all alone.
I felt it was a miracle
That a statue really cried.
Then teardrops fell upon the names
Of all the children that had died.
I turned my eyes to heaven.
The whole sky was shedding tears.
I had thought that these were raindrops
For so very many years.
The angel cried with me today
So did the children's names in stone.
Their teardrops fell upon my skin
And I no longer was alone.

ANGEL OF HOPE
York, Pennsylvania
"Then the child opened its eyes, and looked up into the angel's beautiful
face,
which beamed with happiness, and at the same moment they were in
heaven, where joy and bliss reigned.
The child received wings like the other
angel, and they flew about together, hand in hand."
~ Hans Christian Andersen

WHOLE NEW WORLD
.....from the Disney movie, Aladin
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me

I dreamed of you. I dreamed you were wandering in the dark,
and so was I.
We found each other. We found each other in the dark.
~ Quote from the movie THE GREEN MILE

There isn´t enough darkness in all the world
to snuff out the light of one little candle.
Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta,
the founder of Buddhism, 563-483 B.C.

It is better to try to light a candle
than to curse the dark
Chinese Proverb

A candle loses nothing
by lighting another candle.
James Keller

We cannot hold a torch to light another's path
without brightening our own.
~Ben Sweetland

There are two ways of spreading light;
to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.
~Edith Wharton

Dare to reach out your hand into the darkness,
to pull another hand into the light.
~Norman B. Rice

From within or from behind,
a light shines through us upon things,
and makes us aware that we are nothing,
but the light is all.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Light is good
from whatever lamp it shines.
~Author Unknown

A man should learn to detect and watch
that gleam of light which flashes
across his mind from within.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

I will love the light for it shows me the way.
Yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars.
Og Mandino

Sadness flies on the wings of the morning
and out of the heart of darkness comes the light.
~Jean Giraudoux

"Bringer of Light"

The light in children's eyes
is the reflection of Heaven peeking through.
~unknown

Death is not extinguishing the light;
it is putting out the
lamp because dawn has come.
--Rabindranath Tagore
