A Christmas Reading for Friends
Dear friends, At Christmas, we are reminded that joy often arrives wrapped in simple things—a shared laugh, a familiar smile, a moment of light in the middle of winter. This season doesn’t ask us to be perfect; it asks us to be present. May this Christmas meet you gently. May it soften what has been heavy, brighten what has felt dim and remind you that you are never walking alone. Like the twinkling lights that shine brightest against the night, may hope find you exactly where you are. May laughter echoes a little louder, kindness linger a little longer, and love—steady and true—surround you in ways both seen and unseen. Let us remember that Christmas is not only a day, but a spirit: the spirit of generosity without expectation, of joy shared freely, of believing—if only for a moment—in sweetness, wonder, and magic. As the year comes to a close, may gratitude warm your heart, peace fills your home, and the promise of new beginnings gently unfold before you. From my heart to yours, Merry Christmas. May you be blessed with light, love, and a little sparkle wherever you go. 🎄✨
