I have always thought of Christmas-time..as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely… Ebenezer Scrooge’s nephew Fred, from A Christmas Carol.
May we all try to “open our shut-up hearts” and see each other as fellow passengers on this beautiful and fragile planet.
