It's Time To Start Thinking Hard

It's the wonderful Holiday Season, and lights are twinkling everywhere; have better intentions or a good reason to be kinder and more aware. It's time to start thinking hard and planning for next year, the year in which wishes are granted to the few who were willing to share. Haven't you seen the colorful lights on wide wreaths that adorn the noisy streets and avenues? Haven't you heard the carols choruses praising Jesus? Why is your loneliness an urge for blues? It's almost Christmas Day and no snowflakes have fallen; the presents haven't been wrapped, but stored in dark closets... while other folks have already beat the Yule rush by winding down with expectations on their minds...will you be like them and exchange presents? Haven't you remembered the birth of our Savior? Have you done awesome deeds and spread true joy anywhere? Nothing is more satisfying than being generous, sharing your wealth and make the needy less trepidatious. It's time to start thinking hard and be a witness into the Lord, and if the Christmas word means nothing on a greeting card: what other joy or thrill is left by giving with empty hands? Have you remembered the affection and the kindness of friends?
