Christmastime is here. I am unapologetic in my love for this season. The lights, the ribbon, the glitter… this holiday literally shimmers. No matter what you celebrate during the months of November and December, it’s a joyous time for all.

Among the many things I love about Christmas, I particularly adore the feelings that it brings. It feels so hopeful. I can’t explain why or how; it simply does. There’s just something about this holiday that makes you think anything is possible.

As wish lists are being crafted and gift shopping has already begun, I ask you, what do you want this year? Think beyond the material things. If you could make a wish for anything in the world, what would it be?

I’m thinking about this song…

For most of us, honestly, we don’t need another new watch or sweater. Many of us need something more. We need peace in our homes. We need love in our hearts. We need hope that next year will be better.

So, post your grown-up Christmas list here. Lift it up as a prayer. Let the spirit of Christmas remind you that your dreams can come true.
