Christmas is you, when you decide to be born again every day and allow God to enter your soul.

You are the Christmas tree when you resist the winds and the difficulties of life in a vigorous way.

You are the Christmas decorations when your virtues are the colours that adorn your life.

You are the Christmas bells when you call, bring together and seek to unite.

You are also the light of Christmas when by your life you illuminate the journey of others with goodness, patience, happiness and generosity.

You are the angels of Christmas when you sing to the world the message of peace, justice and love.

You are the star of Christmas when you lead someone to an encounter with the Lord.

You are also the wise kings when you give the best of what you have without taking into account whom you give it to.

You are the music of Christmas when you win harmony inside yourself.

You are a Christmas present when you are a real friend and brother to all human beings.

You are Christmas tidings when you forgive and re-establish peace even when you suffer.

You are Christmas lunch when you fill with bread and hope the poor man beside you.

You are Christmas night when, humble and aware, you receive in the silence of the night the Saviour of the world without noise or great celebrations; you are a smile of trust and tenderness in the interior peace of a Christmas that establishes the kingdom inside you.

Happy Christmas to all those who are like Christmas!
