The world is a looking-glass, and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face. Frown at it, and it will in turn look sourly upon you; laugh at it and with it, and it is a jolly kind companion. ~William Makepeace Thackeray
Today, I embrace the opportunity to be JOLLY, to be inspired by the Season’s gaiety. A day to take delight in all the festive energy. A day to celebrate all that is cultivated by something good or satisfying: another day of life. It is easy to recognize the JOLLY that resides in the heart also resides on the face in the form of a smile or a twinkle in the eye. JOLLY adorns the bounce in each step, decorates song, and spices uplifting words shared with another. ‘Tis a wonderful day to be JOLLY!
