Merry Christmas to you, Bellezza, and every blessing of the season. As for childhood delusions? Perhaps Dickens chose the right word, and perhaps he didn’t. Later today, I’ll be posting about the year I saw the Star of Bethlehem. 🙂

After posting this quote, I decided against it, and added a different one. I want Christmas and delusions to have no part of the same sentence.

I’m not sure what caused me to post the original quote, except a bit of nostalgia for the past, because truly I am happy this year! Yes, we may miss pieces of our youth, which is what I think Dickens suggested, but truly, today is beautiful in itself. And, His grace is abundant. Forgive my temporary lapse, and God bless you always. I can’t wait to hear about the year you saw the Star of Bethlehem.
