. . . this Christmas . . .

 
 
“This Christmas, mend a quarrel.   
Seek out a forgotten friend.  
 Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust.   
 Write a letter.  
 
 
 
 
 
  
Give a soft answer.   
Encourage youth.   
Manifest your loyalty in word and deed.   
Keep a promise.   
Forgo a grudge.   
Forgive an enemy.   
Apologize. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Try to understand.  
 Examine your demands on others.   
Think first of someone else. 
Be kind.   
Be gentle. 
 
 
 
 
Laugh a little more. 
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 and then speak it again. "
