We hope that everyone had a very merry Christmas at our Christmas dinner!<br />
The dinner (for those of you who missed out) included a bottle of wine on<br />
every table, a main course of ham with raisin sauce, scalloped potatoes, carrots,<br />
cauliflower and apple pie for dessert.<br />
We would like to thank Pauli and Betty Woods, Marie DeRee, Natalie and Will<br />
Kleinmeyer, Sue Dietz, John and Monique Benfield, and Larry Kanan for all their help<br />
with the dinner. Also, a thanks goes out to Chris Barnes who was our MC and also sang<br />
a few Christmas carols.<br />
The Most Valued Possessions Lie Within<br />
____________________________________________________________________<br />
A<br />
young boy sought enlightenment from a wise monk who practiced pottery making.<br />
One sunny afternoon after many years of study and meditation, the boy<br />
was admiring one of the monk’s prized pots when it slipped from his hands and<br />
broke into many tiny pieces.<br />
The boy apologized profusely. But the monk remained calm. “You need not be<br />
sad,” he said with a gentle smile. “It is still within me.”<br />
The wise monk’s true pleasure came through the process of creating and shaping<br />
the pot, not in owning it afterward. His joy was not in the destination, but in the journey.<br />
