The spirit of Christmas

Recommended Posts

Seven anonymous donors gave the Covington, LA police department $6500 to give away to individuals last Tuesday. They converted the money into $100 bills and gave them away to random people here in our town trying to pick out folks that looked like they needed it. Watch the video in the newspaper article, and it might make you a little teary-eyed. Makes me proud to be a resident!

 

Merry Christmas everyone.

One of my favorite Christmas stories was written by O.Henry over 100 years ago--The Gift of the Magi. A poor young married couple have no money for gifts at Christmas. She cuts and sells her hair to buy him a chain for the watch he inherited from his father, only to find out that he has sold the watch to buy elegant combs for her hair.

 

Merry Christmas everyone!
