Keep the spirit of Christmas with you always You don’t have to wait until November and December to be happy and show good will toward others. Living as an example to others can be gratifying for you personally, but it can mean even more to someone who perhaps is not having the best of days. Throughout this coming year, here is your challenge: n Find that song that makes you happy, lifts your spirits, and keep it close at hand for your gloomy days. Bring it out when you need, then reflect that onto others. n Smile every day, be kind every day, think of others every day. n Give a compliment to a stranger, buy a gift for a friend or send a card to a loved one. These things only take a moment, yet they implant a lasting memory for the receiver and could be the difference between a bad day and a very good one. In other words, carry that Christmas “good cheer” with you throughout the year. You may be surprised the impact this has not only on those who are near to you, but also works on you! God bless and Merry Christmas!
