Today, I'm remembering to give out what I want to get back.

I only want one thing for Christmas.

And I know it is possible.

To live in a world where our propensity to care for each other overtakes our fear of losing what we hold dear.

I know it is possible, because I have seen this world.

It wasn't that long ago when we lived our love,

Not our fear.

We can do it again.

We simply have to make that choice.

I only want one thing for Christmas.

Its just compassion and the gift of human kindness.

To get it, all I have to do is give it away.

I will.

Today I'm remembering that if I'm expecting something from and experience that it can not give, 

I can never be satisfied.

Today, I'm remembering,

How important it is,

For me,

To believe,

In me.

Today, I'm remembering that listening is a choice.
