The Gift of Light
Christmas Day Special
Today, light chooses to stay.
It rests on open hands,
on shared bread,
on forgiveness spoken without fear.
The sky feels nearer,
as if hope stepped down quietly
and sat beside us.
Today is not about what we receive,
but what we dare to give —
time, warmth,
a softer version of ourselves.
Even the broken places shine,
because love does not avoid them.
On Christmas Day,
the world remembers
that peace is possible,
and kindness —
still alive.
