Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind.
To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy,
is to have the real spirit of Christmas.
Don"t expect too much of Christmas Day. You can"t crowd
into it any arrears of unselfishness and kindliness that
may have accrued during the past twelve months.
Ur friendship is a glowing ember through the yr n each
december frm its warm n livin spark v kindle flame
against da dark n with its shining radiance light
our tree of faith on Christmas night.
