Happy Christmas
These are difficult and trying times. I’ve had very little to say in the past several months, so this tiny blog has been quiet. Today I send out thoughts of hope, of peace, of healing, and of health for all. Be well my friends, Happy Christmas and Feliz Ano Nuevo.

A Holiday Break
Happy Holidays and Feliz Año Nuevo.
I’ll see you again in January. Be safe and warm.
Merry Holidays
Merry Holidays to you and to your families.
Be safe, warm and happy and I’ll see you again in January.
Without any Fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fight
A very Merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
from the song, Happy Xmas (War is Over), by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, 1971
Let your heart be light
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
our troubles will be out of sight
from the song, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane, 1944
The Past

A Wonderful Life
“You see, George, you’ve really had a wonderful life. Don’t you see what a mistake it would be to throw it away?”

Drawing Near
“Christmas time is here
We’ll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year…”
