“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.”
Charles Dickens
What a lovely thought, Spidey, that you found there!
Christmas, and all the feelings of ‘peace on earth, and goodwill to all men’, it’s all well and good, but why do we save it for Christmas?
Would this world not be a better place, if we had those feelings in our hearts all year round, as good old Dickens said, above?
Personally, I try to live my life with these thoughts all the time, but I am always amazed at some people I have encountered, who truly Scrooge it up the whole year round, and then flip a switch, and become this all giving, all cheery individual, just around the festive period.
Then come January, yup, you guessed it, Scrooge is back.
Bah Humbug again!
The world truly is a nicer place around this time of year. There are smiles, and so much generosity.
Seriously? Why can’t we share this giving nature around, spread it over the whole year?
So… tell me, are you more of a Scrooge, during the rest of the year, or like Will Ferrel’s Elf?
But I Smile Anyway...
