Vibe of Good-Will & True Meaning Of Christmas

There is a generous vibe of good-will and charity to give back to the community.

While commercialism is certainly a part of this secular holiday – observed by Christian and non-Christian alike , a choice can be made to shift one’s focus to the true meaning of Christmas.

For some this meaning is God’s gift of love with the birth of his son, Jesus.

For others, this meaning is a time to reflect on spiritual values such as love, joy, and peace with family and friends, making Christmas a special time of year.

This annual Christmas Light Show in Fall River, Nova Scotia draws huge crowds over the holiday season. The family has a Food Bank donation box out that is generously filled by onlookers who enjoy the show.

Time for Reflection

With the approaching start of a new year, December offers a time of natural reflection of the past 12 months – of how far we’ve come and a promise for the year ahead.

I love everything about Christmas.
