Don't Stop Believing! Thoughts And Quotes About The Magic of Christmas

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty

 

"I believe... I believe... It's silly, but I believe."

 

This quote is by Susan in the movie, Miracle on 34th Street. As Susan said, it might be silly, but I also believe in the magic amd spirit of Christmas and don't ever want a day to come when I stop believing. Someone once said "I think as you grow older, your Christmas list gets shorter... because the things you want can't be bought." I know that's more true for me with each passing year.

Christmas is a special time for many of us and a season we look forward to. For me Christmas is the source of some of my happiest memories. Today is Christmas Eve and it's my favorite day of the year. If you're not yet in the Christmas mood... here are some of my favorite quotes that keep me believing that Christmas is magical...  and I hope they do you, as well.

 

"Christmas magic is silent. You don't hear it... you feel it. You know it. You believe it."

... Kevin Alan Milne

 

"Christmas waves a magic wand over the world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful."

... Norman Vincent Peale

 

"Christmas isn't a season. It's a feeling."

... Edna Ferger

 

"Christmas will always be as long as we stand heart to heart and hand in hand."

... Dr, Seuss

 

"What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future."

... Agnes M Pahro

 

"Christmas is a necessity. There has to be at least one day of the year to remind us that we're here for something else besides ourselves."

... Eric Severeid

 

"Christmas, children, is not a date. It is a state of mind.

... Mary Ellen Chase

 

"Christmas gives us the opportunity to pause and reflect on the important things around us."

... David Cameron

 

"It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air."

... W T Ellis

 

"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."

... Calvin Coolidge

 

"Christmas is not as much about opening our presents as opening our hearts."

... Janice Maeditere

 

"May you never be too grown up to search the skies on Christmas Eve."

... Unknown

 

 

Don't Stop Believing In The Magic Of Christmas!

Happy Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas!

Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD hi Debb... I'm sure your grandchildren are enjoying tracking Santa's path around the world. One of my best memories from my childhood is going to candlelight service with my mother and brother at 6:00pm...we would walk the half mile to church (amazing how quiet even NYC streets became on Christmas Eve)... and when we arrived back home gifts had suddenly appeared under our tree. I thought that was magic as a little girl. A very merry and happy Christmas to you and your entire extended household!

Kathy Streib Merry Christmas morning to you, Kathy. That's one of my favorites quotes, as well. As I get older when people ask me what I want for Christmas or for my birthday, I increasingly say there's nothing I "need." It's just not about material things anymore.

James Dray and the same to you, my friend... a very Merry Christmas morning and a very Merry Christmas Day. I know you are having a wonderful time with your extended family. (It was 68 degrees and sunny in Charlotte yesterday and appears it will be a grand day today, as well.)

Owning retail stores for 16 years about put me permanently into the bah hunbug category but I am trying to still make a comeback. I find giving to charity as Christmas gifts has gotten me closer.

Joe Pryor hi Joe... I can understand that... I find that giving at Christmas time also brings me closer to the spirit and message of Christmas. Merry Christmas to you both!
