the greatest gift

Love is that priceless joy of stroking a kitten sitting contentedly on your lap, her wanting to be right there more than anywhere else in the world, that, when she is suddenly, tragically, gone, leaves a hole in your heart big enough to drive a truck through it.  My wish this Christmas is that even in these troubled times, this season and ALL of God’s creatures remind us again of what love is and what it isn’t. That there may be Peace On Earth.
