Regrets are the natural property of grey hairs. Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress. Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes of which all men have some. The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists. Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else. The pain of parting is nothing to the joy of meeting again. A loving heart is the truest wisdom. Electric communication will never be a substitute for the face of someone who with their soul encourages another person to be brave and true. Try to do unto others as you would have them do to you, and do not be discouraged if they fail sometimes. It is much better that they should fail than you should. It was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Tiny Tim observed, "God Bless Us, Every One"! |
