Every day is Christmas.

 

 Every  day  is Christmas when you have the kind of mind,

that stores up all the goodness and the sweetness it can find.

When you don't need an occasion to spread a bit of cheer,

but just keep on a-giving of yourself throughtout the year.

 

Every day is Christmas with a gaily wrapped surprise,

when you've learned to see the friendship in someone else's eyes,

when you try a little harder and complain a little less,

holding fast to all the fervor of the faith that you possess.

 

Every day is Chirstmas when you've found that you can be

more concerned with words like  'you' and less with 'I' and 'me'.

When it's fun to do a favor and to lend a helping hand,

when being understood means less than when you understand.

 

Every day is Christmas with a beauty deeply cast,

when you find it doesn't matter if you're first or if you're last.

When you can face your conscience and be glad of who you are.

Then every day is Christmas for you'll have friends near and far.

  • Dear Irina, thanks for your comment and interst. Yes, Christmas is a very special time for many of us... For me, not because of religion, but more because of the Christmas spirit. People seem to share more, to smile more ... to care more about others.

    Wishing you to feel the warmth of Christmas all the year long.

    Love and hug,
