When we see each other as neighbors, not enemies, the progress and justice come. When we see each other as fellow human beings, as children of god, we begin to walk the path of dr.

Christmas is well, its about the best time of the whole year. No matter when they take place, modern era or period, Christmas Movies and Television Specials are always about someone who has lost their faith in humankind regaining it, saved by other people being kind because its christmas. Christmas is the landscape that everybody wants to paint on. Everyone who tells stories is attracted to the heightened emotions that it brings. Nostalgia plays such a huge part in christmas because it is part of so many peoples childhoods. And being able to go back and relive those feelings every year by watching Holiday Movies is just joy.

Its like the script of my life. Can we go now . Can we go now . Yes. Yes, we can go now. Come on. It brings out every childhood wonder and hurt that you can imagine. Good morning
