Ingredients for a terrific Christmas: Christ. Love for one another. Forgiveness. Generosity. Time. Music. Children’s laughter. Reminising with loved ones. Remembering those who are alone. The making of new memories.

If you want to experience the true meaning of Christmas, give something to someone who can offer nothing in return.

You don’t remember the gifts you are given; you remember the giver and how their love made you feel.

If you’re giving to get, all you’ll receive is disappointment. But if you’re giving to give, all you’ll receive is joy.
