Hope For The Holidays

A month 'til Christmas, so much going on.  I love the lights and cinnamon smells, and the music....it's all just so geared to touch the heart.  And why not?  Baby, it's cold outside....and bound to get colder before its all over.

Wouldn't it be great if we could keep a bit of that special feeling all through the year, instead of just limiting it to a few days of the year? The world would be in a much better state if we were more concerned with survival and less preoccupied with destruction.

My prayer is that we come to that place some day where life matters more than ego.

So for today, Fifty Five Is The New Hope for the Holidays, and for every other day, too!
