I've always loved Christmas lights. The wonderful colors and the amazing ways people decorate never stops amazing me. People hold contests to determine the greatest display in a neighborhood, or even a whole city, and some even have displays tuned to music that you can listen to as you watch. It's incredible. We've gone all over the country and seen lights. All I can ask is, "How did you manage to assemble, attach, and coordinate all that?"
And the trees people decorate are mind blowing. Take some time and search for Christmas tree decorations and you'll wonder why you're so lazy. There are people who turn decorating into a fine art! I'm sure they do it all year round, but at Christmas it really shows. People put a lot of love into this festival, and why shouldn't they, as love is the point of Christmas.
I hope your preparations are going well, but don't forget to take time for your family. Read together, sing together, pray together, and spend time playing together. Take your focus off the many other things and focus on family and friends. Spread the cheer and listen to those around you. And, please go out and look at the lights that people have put together for your enjoyment!
