Remember when…
he said on the Evite, neighbors would come to call on you at Christmas just to share Christmas wishes and some cookies? Last year we held our second annual Christmas Open House on the Sunday before Christmas. Just an open invitation to stop by for coffee, hot chocolate or mulled wine and some Christmas treats to a backdrop of Christmas music over the speakers, no live music, just some tunes to enjoy.
And the friends dropped by, some for a bit and some for a while. And we laughed the afternoon away amidst conversation, cookies and coffee. Every so often, I would look over to myDarlin' Robert Kenui Pope and catch a glimpse of the joy in his eyes as he returned with a look of I love you. Alas, this Sunday was quiet, but if you peek inside the doors of Leilani’s and listen closely with your heart, you’ll sense the spirit of love and fellowship, the spirit of Christmas.
Today, I am grateful that we are able to carry the spirit of Christmas with us wherever we go. For it does not live in any specific place, but rather in our hearts ready to share with others at a moment’s notice.
