It's been a disheartening year in many ways and it would be foolish not to acknowledge that fact---aside from the reality that denial makes it harder to address what needs to change. However, we have a resurgence of people who are ready to create government for and by the people so that the real essence of the American Dream will not perish from this earth. We can do it. But we must each take that first step and then another toward this new horizon. The darkest day of the year has passed and we move on into the light together. We wish you a season of sharing and peace. |

| MEANINGFUL HOMEMADE GIFTS FOR THIS SPECIAL SEASON
If you love journaling, share your writing joy with family and friends by giving each a unique, handmade personal journal. A simple spiral notebook dressed up with paper, fabric, photographs, or other embellishments will give your loved ones a special place to record their private thoughts.
When you sew medicine bags for the people you care about, you can rest assured your gift will always be close to their hearts. A small pouch can be filled with many meditative or symbolic items, such as quartz crystals, sage, or magical objects.
Give the gift of serenity with a guided meditation you create and record to CD or tape. Your loved ones will take pleasure in being led through tranquil landscapes by the soothing sound of your voice.
Hand-crafted ornaments that can be hung on trees, in windows, and on walls afford you an opportunity to surround the important people in your life with beauty. Whether you prefer to work with clay, crystals, fabric, baked dough, or natural objects, your gift can serve as a calming focal point in your loved ones' homes.

| | Thank you for doing your part to help grow our message of caring for all and, as the Salvation Army says, "Doing the Most Good". This, of course, can be read two ways but the bottom line is that we at DPDC believe in DOING THE MOST GOOD and DOING GOOD FOR THE MOST. And, not surprisingly, most Americans understand that a country as great as ours can be and will be MUST embrace such an generous and encompassing philosophy. Glad to have you on the team. Let's do some good.
