Love Is Ours

Once upon a time ...

... ages ago, preciseley at this time of the year an angel was sent to earth. He wanted mankind to remember the real important things in life.
He gave them three gifts:
Warmness, contemplativeness and L.O.V.E.
People were given three days to accept the gifts.

Three days on which business as usual fell silent, people came  closer and the world seemed to be covered with a peaceful blanket. The angel looked with satisfaction at his work.
From this time  people should get this gift every year.
These special days  were named Christmas.

Childrens Day, December 22nd - Happy Christmas

Millions of people are getting ready to celebrate the birth  of a child that brought hope and light into the darkness of   the world ...

Since the children from today - and sometimes the inner child from adults - still bring back hope, love, faith and peace back  into our world  our team would like to share with you this meaningful candle story.


Thank you for all of your love and hope you are spreading in your personal life.
May you always keep your inner child alive, because WE are the children...


Take our heartfelt thanks for constantly supporting our It´s-all-for-LOVE-webteam  and sharing your love with us.

The Christmas Spirit is L.O.V.E

 ...from the IAFL-webteam to all our blog-visitors!

Reflecting  what to write for Christmas on the blog, I  read some wise words from wise people and as well some from tpeople who usually were not famous for their wisdom.

You too will have met people, who are convinced that there's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child. I can not agree to this,  as it is us to keep our inner child alive - at least a little bit and  because the christmas spirit of love is magic for adults as well. 

The video below shows Michael Jackson´s very first Christmas in 1993. He never experienced the wonders of Christmas as a child. It´s amazing to see his joy.

To me, Christmas most cherished presents  are the gift of hope and the gift of love which we get  - unwrapped and unvisible. I found the message of Christmas well expressed by Taylor Cadwell:

~ I am not alone at all, I thought.

I was never alone at all.

And that, of course, is the message of Christmas. 

We are never alone. 

Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the word seemingly most indifferent. 

For this is still the time God chooses. ~

Thank you for your support and love.

Getting ready for Christmas...

~ Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas. 

All else is outward display--so much tinsel and decorations. 

For it isn't the holly, it isn't the snow. 

It isn't the tree not the firelight's glow. 

It's the warmth that comes to the hearts of men when the Christmas spirit returns again. (unknown author)~ 

Michael Jackson might have left this planet,  but he will never be forgotten.  The world will not forget him being an unique artist, but most of us will also always remember him as humanitarian and giving person, a beautiful living soul, who has fought throughout his life for suffering children  All over his lifetime, he donated incredible loads of money to a number of foundations  intending to heal the world.
Michael will have felt the spirit of Christmas all over the year...and not just in december.

By his will he is going to live on as a giving humanitarian;  charities will get support for many, many years beyond his death.

On the occasion of Christmas, I would like  (one more time) to ask for your attention  for a project in Haiti, organized for the children in the poorest area of Port au Prince, Cité Soleil.  After checking out the fotos you will agree that the life in  Cité Soleil is far away from being as nice as it´s name seems to promise, especially not for the children, ....especially not after the devasting earthquake in january 2010.


A  group of volunteers around one of Haiti´s most famous DJs, Carel Pedre, distribute every Sunday a warm meal to about 300 children. 
Take some time to learn more about the project by following into our archive of posts where you find additional links which will give you a picture of "The Sunday Project in Haiti".
Don´t miss to watch Karlitos video.

"To honor the children of the world,

I vow to help the sick & dying, the alone, homeless

 and hungry in every corner of the world."- Michael Jackson

There are many campaigns, organizations, and charities directly related to Michael that you can donate to. If you follow the links, Raven, the appreciated  author of this beautiful blog has published, you will get to Charities which you might like to support.
