			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><p><font face="Verdana">This time of year is a special time for many folks for  family and friends.  For some, who are isolated, it can bring about memories and  sadness. In other parts of the world it is meaningless.  Others find it too  commercialized and detracts from their interpretation of what it really means to  them. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">A special prayer goes out to those who are homeless, isolated, in poor health and those lacking in abundance of any kind.  </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Whichever way you chose to celebrate, or not, as the case  may be, I wish to send you a positive message, a warm greeting, love even if and  especially if you are not surrounded by family or friends.  A wish for peace,  love, joy and happiness, not just for this time of year.  Let the spirit carry  us though out the year and years. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">I received a message in one of the groups I am in. They  are doing a meditation, which I won&#8217;t post here, for World Peace, Abundance and  Freedom.  </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">All good things to aspire for and hope for in the world.   I am not into some of the wording and such so I won&#8217;t post that.  What I will  post is a bit of what I would suggest you do if you so choose.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">The  suggested starting time is Dec. 24th at 9 AM or if  you cannot do this start at 9 PM Dec. 23rd in whichever time zone you are in.   In simple terms, just think of Peace, Abundance and Freedom for everyone, put  your thoughts and attention on that.  Thoughts are energy and we are energy as  is everything else.  It is said to raise our vibrational energy and affect  consciousness. It is not voodoo or magic.  It just is.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Do this until 9 PM Dec. 25th at anytime you choose to be  part of the &#8220;wave&#8221; effect.  Now you can do this all year round if you wish.   </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Important: Include your own spirituality into it,  God,  Buddha, Jesus, Allah, Universal Energy, whatever is meaningful to you.  I  believe that it must feel right to you and not be someone else&#8217;s beliefs. That  applies to anything in life.  Respect, honor the differences in everyone and  follow your own truth.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">Mediation and prayer has been demonstrated to affect  things positively.  Mass meditations have shown to reduce crime in certain areas  so anything we can do in this regard is positive, in my opinion.  </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana">In a previous post I mentioned another planned meditation  that you may wish to consider.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana"><br />
I will post a few messages for this time of  year in several languages.  Again, this is just in the spirit of this time of  year. Also these are greetings written in these languages and not to mean all celebrate this event. I am not an expert in languages so please forgive any mistakes. </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><p>I have added a banner to Easy Ways To Help Others page to Feed 3 Million Children, which is another program to support. To view just go here:</p>
<h3 id="post-4"><a href="http://easy-ways-to.com/how-you-can-use-a-free-and-easy-way-to-help-others-and-make-a-difference/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Free, Easy Way To Help Others and Make a Difference!" rel='nofollow'>Free, Easy Way To Help Others and Make a Difference!</a></h3>
<p>At times I will add a new banner or two.  I will likely keep it to about 10 maximum, at least that is my thought at the moment.</p>
<p>I was quite pleased at the numbers of visits coming to this site, although that has dropped off a bit.   So perhaps I need to remind about the reminder service.</p>
<p>If you feel you may forget to do the clicking, just use the Reminder Service and you will be reminded once a week.  I am using it myself!  I considered doing one daily but that may be too many emails coming out but I would do it if I have enough requests.  It also is a good reminder to come back to see if there have been any additions or changes.</p>
<p>Keep clicking to keep helping out.  It is your call whether you do this daily or which ones you wish to support by clicking the banners.</p>
<p>I just noticed that it was announce that Belinda Stronach, Canadian businesswoman, breast cancer survivor and politician has raised $1 million towards establishing and academic chair at Toronto General and Western Hospital Foundation to assist Canadian woman.  She also pledged to raise an additional $1M for the project.</p>
<p>I am working on a few other ideas.</p>
<p>Best wishes to all.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><p>A warm welcome to everyone.  As mentioned elsewhere I have done things a bit backwards, setting up this part of the blog site first.</p>
<p><a href="http://easy-ways-to.com/helping-others/welcome-to-easy-ways-to-do-things-blog/" title="Free, Easy Way To Help Others and Make a Difference!" target="_blank" rel='nofollow'>Free, Easy Way To Help Others and Make a Difference!</a></p>
<p>I consider it the focal point of this blog and wish it to remain so going forward:</p>
<p>I was just excited to get it launched as a way to help others.    Many people are unable to contribute for lack of funds or other reasons.  Now there is a way that folks can help other folks and they do not have to spend their own funds.   All they need to do is click on a few banners each day and when enough people do that this will really make a significant impact on people&#8217;s live and bellies!</p>
<p>I have been looking for something that I can do to help facilitate this.  I have found a way and I am glad to have found it.  Now I am presenting this and with everyone&#8217;s help it will work.</p>
<p>Yes it will make a difference in people&#8217;s lives.  Let us succeed one person at a time.  Turn the little picture in to the &#8220;big picture&#8221;.</p>
<p>You can help.  I cannot do it without you.  Your help is key to the success of this.     It is crucial.  There is no doubt in my mind that we can do this together and make it a great success for those who truly need it.  I believe it and I know it is possible.</p>
<p>There are many good people on the net who are willing to help. I have met quite a few and I am glad to know them.  They are willing to share of themselves to help others.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s Do It!</p>
<p>&#8220;Easy Ways&#8221; Gene</p>
