Hello and Happy New Year! I hope you all had a nice holiday season. I did buy a new calendar but the calendar I selected for 2024 is just pretty rooster pictures. It looks nice in our kitchen, but there are no inspirational saying to draw from. I have decided to continue to do my monthly inspiration posts, but they will be a little different this year.
This month our inspiration is this poem I wrote – something that has been on my mind for the last week.
In The Spirit of Christmas
The holidays are over, another year through.
It’s common at this time to start feeling blue.
The tree is down now, and lights put away,
but the spirit of Christmas can be here to stay.
To keep it around is up to you,
but read on and I’ll tell you some things you can do.
Greet other people with a smile upon your face.
Comfort those who are hurting with a warm embrace.
Show appreciation along the way.
A simple compliment can make someone’s day.
Offer grace or forgiveness to those who offend.
When you’re wrong admit it and make amends.
Use your time and your talents to do a good deed.
Donate your excess to others in need.
It’s good will toward others that begets peace on earth.
There is no currency to measure it’s worth.
It lives within you, the spirit I speak of.
This Christmas Spirit is AKA love.
