Christmas

Christmas is coming soon! Thanks the Lord for another year with my family. Somehow Dr. Bob's last year sermon about Christmas came into my head. I do not remembered so much of Christmas sermons but this one really come into my head and stayed in my head for a long time...

He said " what we are going to decorate with our Christmas Tree this year?" and continued..."each year we are busy buying different things to hang on the Christmas Tree for to look the best!! ...but this year let us decorate with kindness, loving, sharing, caring, considerions ....." and go on. I thought what a wonderful sermon!

I read the bible last night and it said......."Love your enemies"....Matt 5:44 and I asked to my self that "am I going to decorate with my love on my Christmas tree this year??"............... Here I am trying to love my neighbors (I do not hate my neighbors but busy to notice them) so hard and here...The Lord said to love your enemies is not easy...I do not have enemies but honestly I admit it that I have some that I do not like them. Used to be bothered me a lot but now I couldn't careless ...I let it go....I will love them later or not??... This not for sure but for sure I feel much better for not to remember them.

Is that "Mad" and "Hate" relative?? Or may be if you mad at someone, you starting do not like this someone and may be end up hating someone??? Let see how many people that I used to not like them....

I used to very mad at my Rangoon University System (individually who I have to mad at that I do not know)..... I did not like the way they push us to do that I do not want to do.....I wanted to be a Lawyer but end up Zoology saying I am not smart enough for to be a Lawyer!!! You do not know that how much killing me that....I feel "Studying" is not necessary anymore. OK I finished my BSc..But did I use my Zoologist ability??? NO!! I end up "House wife" for the last 10 years till I got my AG...finally I am happy... I love it, good at it and enjoy it a lot!.Then again I realized that I am in "Mad Industry"...

First time I got cheated by a Burmese Woman (no name to you)... I mad at her so bad that I almost call the Thai Tourist Police!! I was testing my first year in GIA school!...teacher told me to know your ability please starting to buy and sell...so I did!! I bought a Burmese Rubies Necklace...look beautiful. I told that lady clearly "Would you help me to brush up in my selling ...ta .ta. ta...." She gave me that necklace and said " This is very good you will make money"...I bought it and show it to my GIA teacher and she said " This is a big Crap..." my blood boiled out ...but I handle it very well that I got back my money!! Do I love this

woman??....honestly I answered "NO"!!

Then I got cheated by a man for the second time (no name to you again)!! He, who is suppose to be good at in Gem Trading and good and honest at selling...His partner was a man from New York. I bought a loose Ruby Cabochon by them ...Again my teacher told me "this is second Crap Helen"... again I was so mad that I could feel the smoke coming out of my ears! Well again I can handle it very well that I got what I want back...Do I love this man?? the answer is for sure "NO".. for me to put the love for this man on my Christmas Tree is ...not easy but I will try my best though.

Well....I know I will face time to time of unfairness or untruthful but I can handle it... might not be well but I am ok... You all have a wonderful time of in this special season!
