Merry Christmas

What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace.

~ Agnes M. Pharo

Not a big fan of Groban, but that was nice, and I like the quote quite a bit. Merry Christmas to you and your family Dana, and all the best for the New Year. Cheers!!

Merry Christmas Dana.

How was the mac & cheese?

That is a lot more hopeful than I am feeling right now.

Dana said...

Matt-man, nor am I, but really liked the lyrics of this song in a non-spiratual (don't ask) way.

Jay, the quote expresses quite well why I celebrate Christmas.

RockDog, MERRY CHRISTMAS to you too! Mac & Cheese has not been made yet. We just got back from seeing The Great Debaters and it seems everyone is full of popcorn.

Birdman, I'm sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, part of the reason I posted the "hopeful" quote was to remind myself to be more that way.

You know when I feel the most Peace? When I'm too tired to fight anymore.... May the world figure that out before it's too late...
I hope your New Year is filled with Hope- and peace...

How many days till Christmas? Hope you had a good one Dana.

Dana said...

Buffalodickdy, hope is something I hope to never lose! Peace is within my grasp if I just step up and do the difficult things.

CPT Corky, you are just WRONG! *giggle*
