Christmas, as that hustle & bustle holiday, is officially over. This year's was personally a beautifully but heavily emotional one; maybe more on that later, but reflecting back on the past couple weeks being out & about, it seems happiness has hugged the masses. Almost everyone in my path or surrounding me, was cheerful. Genuinely so. I've not heard so many "Merry Christmas" salutations in years. I was reminded of days long gone. 'Twas nice.
Currently, I'm watching the posted Christmas Eve Mass from St. Peter's Basilica. It is so ornately stunning and soul stirring. Those choirs!
I pulled out my Eucharist wafers to join in with a private little ceremony, and not to make light of it but God knows there was wine already poured. Even Lilly participated.
I hope that your Christmas was splendid. On we go to soon, and as joyfully, exclaiming, "Happy New Year!"
