Christmas spirit


I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; 
a kind, forgiving, charitable 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, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.



Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. 
Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time.
