President's Corner: Season of Light
Dear Friend.
"If every one of us lives like a brightly shining lamp, no shadow will be cast. No places of darkness will be created. If we only receive things, they become our debts. Please repay your debts by living a life of true love, of living for others, spreading light through the world and wiping away the tears of those less fortunate."
These words by our Founder remind me that this Holiday season truly is also a Season of LIGHT!
Throughout the world, people celebrate with light, especially at this time of the year when many of the various faith traditions light candles representing hope, love, purity, healing and other-centered values, all of which are divine.
As Mother Hak Ja Han Moon, the Mother of Peace and our Co-Founder, encourages us, we all can be shining lights, as we think and live and work for the sake of others. Light is stronger than darkness and can overcome darkness, which is characterized by selfishness, hatred and conflict, as well as the darkness of the soul -- hopelessness, anger, regret and despair.
I hope you enjoy this edition of the Logic of Love News, where each story and article represents an aspect of light, love and hope.
A special THANK YOU goes to our outgoing Outreach Coordinator, Mrs. Kiyomi Schmidt, who truly has been an inspiration and joy to work with and has been an exemplary light to others! We thank her for her seven years of outstanding service, investment and contributions she has made to WFWP here in the U.S., North America and internationally! (See article below.)
Here is to this season of light and for you and me alike to Be the Light!
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, and a joyous season to all!
Angelika
