My partner and I have described this Christmas mostly as "smooth." That Christmas went smoothly this year is the greatest gift of all, next to the Christ child. Now here comes the shocker; I Love Christmas. That is how this Christmas all began to unfold this year. The biggest change over last year for me is that this year I love Christmas. And it is not just because Jerad is in my life. Christmas has found its place in my heart because it is a time for beginings and I need some new beginings. I want to pick up some old projects and work at them a while. The movie "Under The Tuscan Sun" says that we should take one of those bad ideas and work on it. I want to take one of those bad ideas, like moving on with my education, and work on it (a bit). Change happens in your life when you invite in a renewal of the good that has happened before. Nothing is beyond you because you choose your attitude. I chose a very different attittude this Christmas and I am a happier man because of it. I deceided to make the most of what I have this christmas.
I also did my best to try to extend the invitation of Christmas to others this year. Christ invites us all, and I mean all, to the table with him. It should be a very Holy day. This being said it has a pratical application, Christmas means including everyone. You do not just invite those people you really like, you invite everyone who will come. Christmas is for everyone.
I wish everyone this year a very Merry Christmas. Please join in the celebrations!
