The most wonderful time of the year

Despite the recent tragedy that struck the country, where thousands died and lost their loved ones, the Christmas spirit never dies. As Norman Vincent Peale said, "Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful."

Today as I came home, I got a hug from my son and he told me that he wants to fast forward the time, so he can unwrap the gifts. I would have stopped him and remind him all about the people suffering in Mindanao but I had to cease and take a pause. I just had to let him be a child ...Christmas may be many things for a lot of people but for a kid like my son, it's the joy is each new toy.

I know that I have raised my children to be sensitive to other people's needs, I have reminded them to help in any little way they can. It's Christmas time and my wish is that Peace and Happiness be your gift at Christmas and your blessing all year through!
