Should anyone ask me about Christmas in this world of ours, I would speak about those things that began with the beginning of Christmas.
When one begins at first to trust another, and together build a bridge to overcome hate and enmity, then will you find those traces of Christmas.
When one in the darkness will not remain silent, but rather intones a song of hope to overcome the fear and the silence, then will you find those traces of Christmas.
When one swims against the current and takes up a hard burden to overcome adversity and strife, so you will find the traces of Christmas.
Where one does not quail in the face of hardship, and ventures a new beginning to overcome sorrow and suffering, there can you find the traces of Christmas.
Wherever one dares the difficult, and openly states his opinion to overcome falsity and lies, there also will you find traces of Christmas.
Whenever one wakes from indolence and discovers with you a path to overcome the high walls, then will you find traces of Christmas.
