The joy of Christmas is, at the heart of it, the joy of life. On Christmas Day we celebrate the gift of life. The brightly colored packages and their contents are mere tokens. The love in which they are given is what brings them their meaning.

And so too with the precious gift of life. The outward appearances and material manifestations are not what really count. They will all too soon rust and fade and crumble. What will last is the love we give, and the love we live, in each moment, in each day, as the years go by.

Hey... I insist that you give it some thought. Think about the love you give, not only at this season, but throughout the year.

Forget about all the commercialism and how far we've gotten away from the real meaning of the season and the various religious holy days.

Forget about your every day problems for a while and just think good thoughts, possitive thoughts. Change all the negative statements you've been making. Turn them upside down and make them possitive! You can do it! Just for a while... Try it. Please?

Goes both ways, Angie! The love we share for each other has been truly amazing at times. At other times, it's just knowing that if I need anything, you are there!

Christmas Joy

LOVE that you share Guido with me! Christmas Joy

You have certainly given me good reason for a lot of good laughs this season... starting with the flamingo, then the penguin and all the silly games we've played here.

HEY! Where's the recipe for my Friendship Cake?? Christmas Joy
