This time of the year is a special one. It’s Christmas time, followed by the New Year time. It’s time to meet with relatives and friends, enjoy their presence and their warmth, relax and enjoy all kinds of entertainments. Time to send presents; time to receive presents. Time to share. Time to listen. Time to send all kinds of ‘best wishes cards’, and time to receive them from old and new friends. It is a period where everyone is happy to make others happy.

Sadly, it is a period where some people think more about themselves and immediate families and forget that, somewhere around them, there are people who are suffering and who, due to various reasons, can not enjoy this Christmas – New Year time. There are people who are sick, people who are dying in hospitals, people who are homeless, people who are poor, people who are in war-stricken countries… All those people would like to have their share of peace, relaxation and enjoyment. But circumstances make it difficult for them to celebrate. For them, no Christmas bonanza, no turkey, no wine, no dinner in chic restaurants, perhaps no entertainment… Even no smile on their faces.

Some might think that they can do nothing to bring smile and hope to such brothers and sisters. Some may even think that they have no responsibility in what is happening around them. They act and think selfish, without realising it!

Anyway, I take this opportunity to think about the meaning of all this. If we have to enjoy a wonderful lifestyle, we need to share our joy with other humans around us. Creating wealth is one noble objective. But sharing the benefits of a wealthy lifestyle is important as well.

We are now at the end of year 2007. Next week, we are starting a new year. For many people, it will be time to make new year resolutions. For some, the new goals will be ambitious. For others, they will be survival goals. If only we could look around and include in our resolutions some positive actions which can bring the world closer to peace, humanity and harmony.

In my previous post, I recalled how wonderful and exciting the last World Internet Summit 2007 in London was. Now, good news for those who have not attended that summit and who would like to live that experience. Tom Hua and Brett McFall, the organisers of the World Internet Summit, have just announced that the next World Internet Summit will take place in Sydney, Australia in March 2008.

Last week, a friend of mine Akua sent me an invitation to join her as a friend to facebook.com. Until now, I had thought that facebook was for people younger than me. I am 52, so, what do I do with teenagers and young university students in a social networking portal such as facebook.com. But after receiving the invitation from Akua, I said to myself: why not be curious and try it? You might learn something valuable there. And perhaps facebook is not only for young people, it might be also suitable for more mature people.So, I registered and started surfing around. WOW! What a world? With so many groups and networks, millions and millions of people networking everyday on facebook! Exciting!Just after joining, I got an invitation from a South African lady, Heather, I met at two occasions this year. The first time, I met her in London at the Christopher’s Howards ‘Breakthrough To Success’ Seminar and we had a very interesting chat about our dreams and our commitment to reach financial freedom and sustainable lifestyle. She had then registered with the Wealth Dynamics Seminar and she invited me to a Wealth Dynamics evening some two weeks later. I was pleased to have been at that evening because it reinforced my will and determination of planning and working smart for a better financial future.

Now, I have 2 friends in facebook and I am member of the London group which counts 1,880,936 members. This is the beginning. I will certainly work hard to have more friends with whom I can share views and interests… And if you want to join me, just register at www.facebook.com and invite me as your friend.
