Delray Beach-Christmas...Joy, Love, and Peace.
If someone finds where this month or even this week went, would you please let me know. As has most everyone else, I have been busy preparing for Christmas.
Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift. Albert Einstein
We also have our wonderful friends coming in for a too-short visit, so very excited about that. Actually, as I’m writing this, they are on their way up A1A from having visited Key West. But when you read this, they will have already arrived. Confusing, I know.
Christmas is the spirit of giving without a thought of getting. It is happiness because we see joy in people. It is forgetting self and finding time for others. It is discarding the meaningless and stressing the true values. Thomas S. Monson
My annual tradition or weird quirk as some may call it, of being in the mall on Christmas Eve may have to be skipped this year since it falls on a Sunday.
I love being in the Mall on that day, even if there is nothing left that I need to buy. (could that possibly be?) Fathers rushing with their children to buy mom a gift...giddy teens buying just the right present for their boyfriend/girlfriend.
People with smiles on their faces saying “Merry Christmas” to people they pass and to the sales staff.
I love it!!!
Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. Norman Vincent Peale
However...it is Sunday and that means NFL games. Falcons vs The Saints, and the Dolphins vs the Chiefs.
What a dilemma!
Christmas isn't a season. It's a feeling. Edna Ferber
Every gift which is given, even though it be small, is, in reality, great, if it is given with affection. Pindar
Wherever you are, whatever you’re celebrating, I hope that you will keep the spirit of the season in your heart.
Have a splendid, joyous, and
fantabulous Weekend!!!
