I’ve also witnessed the personal outreach of members of our community to our own who’ve been more drastically affected by the downturn of the economy.I took my elderly relative out for the day to visit her sister who moved to a far suburb, too far for any visits this year.
I guess the true meaning of my Christmas was there all along.
I watched them laugh and share like old friends, reminiscing about holidays of long ago.
It’s not what you do for yourself to create your Christmas, it’s what you do for others to help them create theirs.Wishing you all a holy season filled with special moments and meaning beyond words.
I found tradition and time with friends, but was still looking for a truer meaning.I became convinced that even if all the right things were done- the house twinkled with merry, presents were under the tree, the cookies were colorfully sprinkled, that Christmas could be disguised in tradition but still devoid of meaning.
So I thought long and hard about my dilemma, and this is what I found.I attended a Christmas caroling at Balmoral nursing home here in town, and watched the glistening eyes of a senior there, looking up adoringly at a caroler who stepped away from the choir to hold her hand and sing with her.I watched a toddler cling to his mother’s hand in line at Hawthorn shopping center, eagerly awaiting his turn with Santa, jumping around, pulling his mom’s hand so full of other packages from their afternoon of shopping.I’ve walked past piles of wrapped presents awaiting their journey to a parish not far from us, where tired but tireless volunteers will distribute them to needy families.
