The Best Of The Season To You All

I have something else for the blog tomorrow, so I thought I’d take the opportunity now to wish you the very best of the Christmas and New Year holiday season.
Sadly, Christmas has come to be more closely associated with the jingle of cash registers than sleigh bells (regardless of hemispheres!)—but I like to remember author, philosopher, theologian, educator and civil rights leader, Howard Thurman’s reminder that the “work of Christmas” is:
“…To find the lost
To heal the broken
To feed the hungry
To release the prisoner
To rebuild the nations
To bring peace among people.”
Looking at recent news, the reminder feels more vital than ever.
May the very best of the season find you all, wherever you are and whatever you may be doing.

That’s a good and thought-provoking quote.
Merry Christmas! 🙂
I have thought it is the best quote for quite a number of years. Merry Christmas, Seregil.
