 "This Holiday Season...


12.14.png



Mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion, and replace it with trust.

Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Offer encouragement.

Manifest your loyalty in word and deed. Keep a promise. Find the time. Forgive an enemy.

Listen. Apologize if you are wrong. Try to understand. Flout envy. Examine your demands

on others. Think first of someone else. Appreciate. Be kind; be gentle. Laugh a little.

Laugh a little more. Deserve confidence. Take up arms against malice. Decry complacency.

Express your gratitude. Welcome, a stranger. Gladden the heart of a child.

Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love. 

Speak it again. Speak it still once again."

 Howard W. Hunter
