Christmas Give-Away

I have been contemplating doing a Christmas give-away, but my mind keeps whirling in a different direction; a direction that brings more peace to me than any other.

I love to give. I swear, the joy it brings me to see (or read) that smile is overwhelming at times! It brings happiness, and love, and I really believe that is what this season is about.

Remember the words, "It is more blessed to give than to receive".... Well today, I would like to not only give myself the chance to GIVE, but I would like to give YOU the chance as well.
