Hi Maureen, this is a wonderful acknowledgement of fan story, I too would be lost without it, Ok it needs a little tweaking to keep up with the many demands of us poets and writers, but if it wasn't here when I woke in the morning I wouldn't cope, so have yourself a really wonderful Christmas - your first on this site my friend.

Thank you so much Eric! My Christmas Tree is truly God blest and filling fast to be the uniquely precious treasure of 2015. And, so sparkling brighter with every word and connection it inspires! I hope your Christ-mass brightens your Way with Christ, FanStory and love unfolding into 2016, and radiates with joy into our world. As for the tweaking, well as a new comer and struggling with technology, it can be quite a relief to do a little tweaking amongst one's general path on FanStory and hope for a response! By that time, it has often been forgotten or resolved in the joy of stepping forward - if the technology concurs!

However, I agree, it is a great gift to one's unfolding, I would say God's Gift of empowerment for the soul and inner self in meeting the challenges and joys gifting a solitary purpose in one's pilgrimage and growth in this complex and quickening world, of whirling, dead, destructive, exploiting and, indeed, oft humanity destroying world of life. I believe it was a lonely road Jesus trod, and anchored the Way for FanStory and hope that our need and ability to flower above the limits of our world, gifting our unique light on the Way, as you do, is quickening the Golden Harvest of his promise; and this is rising, even in the increasingly regenerating love and hopes of each chosen and treasured birth and life ? that is unfolding those bonds through eternity as we can Under-stand as Christ-massed in love and joy and celebrate our Way of 2015. And gifts a New Spring in our step and stories of regeneration of all life because of our miraculous healing and DNA repattening of Earth's evolutionary embodiment of life's dualities. You are a special treasure on that greatest Tree, and I hope this Christ-massed brings wonderment and joy of knowing each Way of Christ is nourishment, change, and New Light expressed in the reality of God's Word, because of your courage to be.

A star on the Way of destiny "The Gift of FanStory: Christmas 2015" This is a very good poem you have created here. I particularly liked the idea where you thanked all FanStorians for what they've done. This does not happen often. Very well done.

Thank you so much! My Christmas Tree is truly God blest and filling fast to be the uniquely precious treasure of 2015. And, so sparkling brighter with every word and connection it inspires!

FanStory has so quickly become the staff for a most precious and remarkable winter of life, as I am suddenly envisioning it; and so this poem is a gift empowering me to express that in words; and so to share my rapid and excited new unfolding and being in life, not only with FanStory, which gifts nourishment and power; but all who have been part in its vastly different seasons in our fast changing and increasingly complex world. So, thank you again, and I feel especially thrilled to think you will receive more and many varied thanks for FanStory's gift to our world. Truly a Christ-massed blessing and joy that shines in reviews of The Gift of FanStory, thank you, Maureen*&*

Thank you Sandra, for many years I've enjoyed the reflective aspect of Christmas, connecting my year to the greater whole I experience in terms of meanings which energise me into the New Year and hopes for the harvest of Christ in our human hearts and creative endeavours. Maureen*&*

Thank you so much Roy! You brighten that glow and gift it substance in your experience. As my poetry is generally a gift and present of God crystallising the Christ light in my journey, this is a special celebration of 2015 and a stepping stone towards the New Year. Enjoy your Xmas journey, Maureen*&*

Thanks Gert. I love the way you note the particular lines that link with you. And, of course, I love an inspiration that crystallises a precious moment or journey on my lifeline; and especially the knowing FanStory will be a precious vehicle for my year, and I feel the next season of life, brightening many connotations of winter.
