every time, even though I know it's coming.
~ Nicholas Lea
It is a wonderful life. No doubt about it. I love the movie and yeah ok I cried at the end. Good old Mary Bailey comes to the rescue and saves her family. Old Mr Bailey gets to old Violet and give Clarence the Angel Second Class congrats for getting his wings. Story over and Mr. Bailey is the richest man in the town because he has so many friends.
Life is like that. Friends and family are everything! Salute to yours and hope you enjoy the day and season.
Ok....without further delay my Christmas Gift to you.
Last night I sent out 50 + emails to my friends on Gather. My gift to them and you if you choose to accept it.
Is..... Six months free of Smiles and Inspiration 2012 delivered to your inbox with link and password. It is protected starting Jan. 01, 2012 so its simple its free if you email me your email address.
Email it to victoryakin@gmail.com or vyakin@makemesmileonline.com
Many of you from Gather and Facebook have already done this ... Thank you and Merry Christmas. You have to email either today or Monday by 9pm. So please its my Christmas spirit to you and yours : )
So why did I do this?
I pray alot and I listen alot to my inner spirit. It works it really works if you listen and be still and quiet.
So by you know I care quite a bit about the human spirit. I want to inspire, and educate and entertain about the simple sincere power of a smile given. The energy that comes from spoken gratitude and a kind word passed forward to another.
Its real, it can change a broken heart, mend a down trodden spirit and it works.
I write to share that message. To uplift and to make you think a bit.
I do this daily, everyday.
I write on several web sites including my own. Want some guest writers one day. I do. But I do this because its my passion, my purpose maybe? I do it because I want to make a difference.
So for the next six months January 2012 through June 30, 2012 no charge, no fee, no problem just send me your email that you want me to send it to daily.
I do this free, however there is times that I like you struggle. I pay for the domain name, of MMSO (Make ME Smile Online) and its hosting. I spend about 1.5 a day doing what I love. So truly its not that much work its a passion. If you choose to send a donation to help please do. It helps even if its just a dollar or two. It helps. I will leave that simple request for you to ponder.
Today is Christmas ! ! ! ! !
Enjoy the egg nog and the goodies and treats.
Me I have a coffee and some Bailey's Irish Creme and some of Aunt Carol's famous nutroll
I will soon make some eggs and hame and maybe sit down for breakfast but you come first today. You the reader who has been so kind.
Merry Christmas !
Only what six days till the new year ! Wow how the time flies.
Listen to the heartbeat and laughter and joy of Christmas. Listen to it today. Watch it and take it all in.
A challenge for you all. Take in enough and carry it with you and share in the spirit every day.
Every day give your kindness.
Every day give a smile
Every day share your gratitude and laughter with the image in your mirror.
Give a kind word
Give a little love to a hurting world
Watch how it effects others
Watch and see how it effects you
Share in the magic of the holidays not just for a few weeks or a month but the whole year.
A challenge you bet it is but the payback is well worth the effort! Enjoy your day !
The new affirmation for the week : )
I am full of love. I am a creation made to contribute and share that which I am full of. I choose to share love. I choose to share a kind word. I choose to share a simple sincere smile today. Tomorrow I will do the same. I am a perfect creation. I have the power within to make a difference. I choose to do make a difference today.
This week 67 words to inspire and to affirm each day. Say these words of magic a few times and allow them to flow into your mind and subconscious.
Watch the power of these words. The power of I choose. The power of now and today.
Use these words to make your day and the day of others a bit better.
Smiles as always sent your way. Today and always. : )

Your Daily Prayer
Lord, thank you for today and all its majesty and beauty.
Thanks for the gift of our free will may we all choose wisely.
Thank you for this day, this holiday that we set aside for those we care about.
Bless our families, our friends, those in need of hope and faith may be in some way help to inspire their lives.
May I share a smile, a sincere smile and perhaps a kind word or deed.
Show appreciation more.
Expressing the real reason for the season not just during the season but every day!
Thanks for the gift of love may I understand that everything was designed with love and only man and his wrong intentions created hate.
Help all of us to become better givers of self.
Help us to become the gift that this world needs.
A bit kinder, more gentle, more in tune with the power and influence we really do all have.
To share to be that beacon of light.
To share a simple sincere smile.
To reach out with our hands and arms to help another person get a foot hold once again.
I give you praise and the glory for all of that
With humility and gratitude I thank you
Amen
