Happy Christmas, Everyone

“I like to compare the holiday season with the way a child
listens to a favorite story. The pleasure is in the familiar way
the story begins, the anticipation of familiar turns it takes,
the familiar moments of suspense,
and the familiar climax and ending.” ~ Fred Rogers

My contribution today is a heartfelt wish for peace in every corner of the globe. And for
rhythm, I offer you this familiar John Lennon/Yoko Ono song on YouTube. Please enjoy.

PS: I’ll be taking a short break at selmamartin. I hope to see you again on the first
day of the new year, friends, when I’ll share with you a few short pieces I’ve been
working on this month.
Hint: They’ll come bearing a Japanese flavor.

  Lovely, Raj. Merry and Bright.
  The weather is cold. Very.
  But on my side of the island — the Pacific Ocean side— we don’t have snow yet.
  Blessings to you and your family. Xoxo
