Holidays named after people are to announce and bring higher consciousness into the world. The most notable of these is Christmas and other such spiritual holidays around the world, Saints’ days and Presidents’ days. Holidays mean to do honor. A holiday like Columbus Day is honoring discovery and strong fixity of purpose. And, ah, birthdays are celebrated even of the humblest, for birthdays also celebrate Life.
Whatever you may think of life at a particular moment, life is fun. It is interesting. It is dramatic. Life gives you a lot to ponder. Yes, 3 cheers for life, that a son or daughter of God is born. There are so many births that births may seem like a dime a dozen to you. Plenty doesn’t mean ordinary. Each birth is new and filled with promise. How life gives opportunity! Life on Earth is a great opportunity. Yes, let Us celebrate life. Creation is a great delivery.
Before the blossoming of Creation existed Everythingness and Nothingness. A blank slate is also a great thing. We can lightly say that Creation arises from a blank slate. Without a blank slate, where could Creation be written? Of course, a blank slate is like a drawing board, and, of course, Creation comes from much deeper than what it is written on. The foundation of a Creation is deep and vast and holds many mysteries. There is no greater creation than Creation. It must be that all possibilities are written on the first day of Creation.
