Christmas in a Little City

    There is something sweet about a little city during the holidays.  Decorations are all over the main portion of down town, the park is a winter wonderland filled with Christmas trees all a glow with multi-colored strings of lights and Santa Claus makes his annual appearance to greet the kids.   There is a special feeling in the air around this time.  People seem to smile more, be friendlier and generally kinder.  Perhaps it’s all of the holiday good will and tidings of joy spread through music and movies.  Or maybe it’s fueled by the scents coming out of the local bakeries as they create decadent sweets for holiday consumption. Whatever it cause, it is nice to have more good and happy things surrounding us as the holiday approaches.

      Life here is a short one.  There is enough evil in the world to keep the media humming along for an eternity.  Right now, I’m thankful for the brief reprise of this in my little city where the local folk are all pleasantly getting along as we prepare for St. Nick’s arrival.

      It’s hard to imagine that another year is about to pass. Time is truly fleeting.  As we get ready to leave 2014 behind, look towards the future with all the possibilities it brings. My personal goal for 2015 is to write a great deal more as my blog submissions have waned a bit the past 2 months. 

No matter what you celebrate, I wish you all a very happy holiday season, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Peace, Love & Joy to you all.
