The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union.

The joy of brightening other lives, bearing each others’ burdens, easing other’s loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of Christmas.
