May you feel such love as lights the morning
Even at this darkest time of year,
Rippling through your heart with little warning,
Returning you to wonder and to fear.
You cannot will yourself to feel such love;
Christmas is a gift of unsought grace.
However much you may your spirit move,
Redemption chooses whom it will embrace.
In you may there be radiance and beauty
Such that you might never hope to see,
Taking as its home some common duty
Made lovely by a will sustained and free.
As you become a vessel for this light,
So may you know its pain and its delight.

Hello!
I wish you a happy and a prosperous new year. Please expand the terms LOL and ROTFL for me. I could understand that ROTFL was a comment for addressing you as MR. Leon. I am sorry to say that I really don’t understand them, may be I am too new to blogging or to computer terms or may be just too naive. Whatever it may be please do expand. By the way, my kids were very thrilled to get your wishes. Thank you.
Sreejith: Thanks buddy. Have a great year…
Reshmi: Thanks Reshmi…
Anurekha: Thanks… but I don’t like cakes 🙂 Thanks for the wishes for good health.

Hello Sir,

i was planning to embark on to a more purposeful living from yesterday on.And that absolutely mindblowing article made me realise to what extend one can succed with sheer willpower.
everyone is endowed with a talent or other and its just for us to work on that.
anyway wishing u a good year ahead.keep in touch if possibe. i won’t ask you to get me a computer:-)
“Another fresh New Year is here…
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright New Year is given me
To live each day with zest…
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!”
— William Arthur Ward
Alexis…..Happy New Year to you , your loved ones and to your loving friends here.

Happy New Year, Alexis!
Read the article about you in the RD Nov.issue.
Recommended to some of those whom I know facing somewhat similiar situations. I keep reading the article to date. One person who has read is my husband. Not sure about my friends .You are a very Marvellous person.
Just now I searched Google. To my surprise I found this link! MY
husband is from Tripunithura. Said he has heard about you.
Wishing you a very meaningful purposeful year. kanaka
Hello,
We were in Cochin and visited some places in and around Kerala. In my elder son’s priority list of the place to visit, the first one was going in the house boat in back waters, the second was to meet Alexis Leon uncle. Inspite of me explaining that you might be too busy etc. etc., he’s still slightly disappointed. Kerala trip was wonderful (2008 started beatifully for us). How is yours?
