In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing, people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you’ll hear
Silver bells
Silver bells
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling
Hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day!

Except for under the tree with my family, there’s no other place I’d rather be than out on the busy sidewalks. There’s nothing like Christmas shopping and being out in the stores in the holiday hustle and bustle. I love seeing other people buy gifts for their loved ones. Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. All of the Christmas songs and decorations, it makes all of us children again. Being out on the busy streets and in the crowded stores, makes me feel like I’m a part of something bigger. The joy connects us and brings all of us together.
I always wished that I was a “Who” when they all gather around the town Christmas tree on Christmas day to hold hands and sing in harmony.
I wish that we lived our lives like the Scrooge who had been visited by the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future.
Why don’t we live to spread Christmas joy each day of the year?
Why don’t we help the “Tiny Tims” of the world each month, not just December?
Why don’t we live with arms and hearts wide open?
There’s never a Christmas like the present Christmas.
Let’s make a change.
