Elvis - A Lighted Candle

[Elvis'SweetSweetSpirit]

Christmas time is here.
I'm thinking how wonderful it would be to have spent it with someone as special and wonderful as you.
Walking down the streets of Memphis holding hands and looking at all the beautiful decorations and all the beautiful color lights lightening up the streets and sky.

Seeing the beautiful smile and happiness on your handsome face and seeing those big beautiful blue blue eyes light up when you see the joy and peace and happiness on everyone's faces that would be the most beautiful and wonderful Christmas ever.

Knowing you were with me and sharing our love joy and happiness with each other, and you knowing how happy and how much in-love I am with you and how much joy I feel inside because I'm with you.

I love and miss you so very much!

Beautiful said here.

It is exactly the scenery I can picture in my head when listening to his christmas songs.

I can imagine myself being there at Graceland and love him forever and take care of him.

He deserved a good wife and a better life but somehow it was not there for him.

When I was at Graceland I starred at that beautiful mother , daughter pic hanging in the dining room and I tought/

My God Cilla was indeed beautiful.

The most beautiful girl I ever saw, was she , but perhaps he could have still lived and would have been much more happier with a less beautiful wife who was more beautiful at the inside and who wanted to be his wife and raise his children and do the household and who could have offered him a much warmer family life.

I can't help thinking that Priscilla' soul must be even more beautiful than her apparience. She chose to come to this lifetime to take on her the difficult role she had to play, not only as Elvis' wife and Lisa Marie's mother (which was hard enough), but all the rest that is not open to our eyes.

She, as any of us, is here to learn. What, we don't know about her, but we can try to find out about ourselves, in order to flow with what this life was intended to be for us. I feel that we must handle ourselves with Love and compassion for our lesser knowledges and understanding. As much as we'd like to be treated by others and we treat them.

Reading this takes me back, in my heart and my mind, to a time when walking and looking at Christmas lights and being thankful that such things were possible for displaying for all others to see. Elvis especially loved Christmas, which is the time of year that used to be about dreams and hopes but now it is so very commercialized.
I would, of course, NEVER turn down a chance to snuggle close along side of Elvis as we watched the joy the lights provided for us and to all who saw them.
Very pretty sentiment and certainly from a gentle and loving heart!!
Thank you for sharing this with us!!!

I know what it is like to walk on a winter evening with the merry Christmas lights directing me along the way, and soft snowflakes lightly touching my face making not a single sound; and as I look up at the beautiful stars I know that the One above is there and so is Elvis.
I have experienced lots of evening walks beginning from when I was a child, then becoming a teen, and finally as a wife and a mom and more recently as a grandma. The stars in the sky, the decorations on houses and the magical feeling of surprises in the air continue to make a walk on such a night with feelings of peace in my heart a happy walk; and also the hope for peace for all of us who share this earth in this time, is the very best part of a winter night in Michigan as 2007 creeps closer and closer to ending.
I am thankful for so much and I worry about those who have so very little knowing they are cold and hungry and can not find comfort from the falling snow and the pretty lights as they huddle together trying only to survive.
We do what we can to help as do millions and millions of others around the world. We just wish we could have a magical wand to wipe poverty from the face of the earth and that no matter what one believes or does not believe that diverse beliefs are respected by all.
I have no doubt that Elvis brought me to ELC because he knows what beauty for the soul would be found for me here. Thank you very much dear Elvis. You knew what you were doing---because at ELC there is sharing, support and boundless amounts of hope just waiting for those who know that it is only with love and support that we can find hope and peace.
