My Christmas wish for you

INVITES NOT NECESSARY

 

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store? What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?

~Dr. Seuss

 

My family and I will be away for the holidays to visit our families. I don't know if I will be able to post anything but I will definitely be visiting your photo streams when time allows it. While I'm gone, I hope you take time to read and listen to my wish for you this Christmas. Another country song but the lyrics say it all for me. Below is an excerpt of the beautifully written song - well, to me it is - I hope you think so too.

 

"More than anything, more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,

Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,

You never need to carry more then you can hold,

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish."

 

I hope too, that Christmas will be a time for reflecting that regardless of race and religious beliefs, we are just one big family after all.

 

May we choose peace, be generous to our brother or sister in need, and love...above all, love.

 

May we not forget the true reason for this season.

 

Happy Christmas to all my friends! Thank you for your comments and visits.
