Reflection's Of The Season...


~Lot's of gingerbread men...and spice &
everything nice! And all kinds of wonderful
gift's...tis the season of giving...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gift ideas;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To your enemy~forgiveness,
To an opponent~tolerance,
To a friend~your heart,
To a customer~service,
To all~charity,
To every child~a good example,
To yourself~respect.
~Oren Arnold


~A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;
It makes no noise at all,
but softly gives itself away;
while quite unselfish, it grow's small.
~Eva K. Logue

~I wish we could put up some Christmas
spirit in jar's and open a jar of it
every month.
~Harlan Miller


~Christmas renews our youth by
stirring our wonder....

I've decided after reading your post I'm going to keep one of my trees up all year .... a little one tucked into a corner just for me to catch a glimpse of ... or perhaps it might get to spend it's time in a more prominent spot ...mmmm going to look for the right spot *!*
