Christmas Week Challenge

Christmas Week Challenge:
in the chaos and hustle and bustle that easily fills this week
I challenge you to take a few minutes right now
and do the unheard of:

stop
that's right
sit or stand, it doesn't matter,
simply quit moving for a small space of time

look
around you
inside of you
take inventory, make sure you don't miss the important stuff

listen
to your heart
to the hearts of those you love
and think about how to give what is most wanted

love*
it can't be bought
but it is the most costly gift you can give
and is the richest gift you will ever receive

*warning-receiving and giving true love will change life
