in gatherings around the Holy Nights
of the Winter Solstice, Eve of Christmas,
or Hanukah, the Festival of Lights, or Kwanzaa.

Divine Return
We are Love as we are a part of God. Because we loved, we stood before our Mother-Father God in Heaven and said, "I Love it here, but I feel I'm needed on Earth. Maybe if I go people everywhere will remember we are all One, and when we do it'll all be so beautiful."
And God said, "Gee, it's a risk, you know. If I blow out your light, you'll be in the dark. There a good chance you won't remember your true identity, and you'll be biting off a pretty big assignment.
And the Wise One said, "Oh God, how silly, for I believe in the Truth of all Life.
I know your guidance is echoed in every tree and flower. I know you Love me, and I know you have planted the impulse to Love on Earth already, That Love will shine on me, and relight my flame, my light, my Divine spark."
And God said, " You are truly Wise, so go out, pour out, give outwardly, for this is your nature, to Love."
When the child came to life on Earth they faced the darkness and felt the deepest separation; yet it was through their own choosing.. The Wise One suffered a great pain and was in misery.
One day, They met the impulse to Love on earth, and that Divine spark lit the candle of their being again, only a small flame, but enough to make the Heavens clamor, for they knew the Wise One was on the way back home again. Slowly, ever so slowly, that one Divine spark was enough to set
them on the path to remembering again. With that impulse alive, they pressed on, making peace at every stage of growing, until the glorious day when The Wise One remembered their divine origin.
They proclaimed their rising before all humanity, and they heard and knew. Each lit the candle of the other, each to each, life to life. The flame was One flame, the light so great that the heavens cried out and reflected the light from above, and the light from below rose to meet it and Heaven and Earth met face to face, light to light, garden to garden.
Suddenly there was no separation of Mind holding Earth and Heaven apart. All the stars and suns echoed their light through the Universe, and the bells of every sanctuary to God on earth rang, in so many different tones and sounds. The music of the spheres was heard, and oh, oh, it was so beautiful as the Wise One returned triumphant. It was God meeting God, and all was One in Heaven and Earth. Everyone hugged and choirs, so filled with harmony, started singing. Everyone joined in a big party and they danced into eternity.
