It’s Christmas decorating weekend for us. Even though we don’t attend church any longer, we still love the message of hope, love, and redemption this season brings.
It’s also a season of Christmas movies. There are so many Christmas stories and songs with great messages that it’s hard to discover the best ones. I want to suggest one first aired last year, that has a message for everyone, even if you’re not a Christian. It’s Spirited a musical based on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens told, in this case, from the Ghost’s point of view. Every year they pick one person to redeem. The year they do this in the movie, they choose a very hard case played by Ryan Reynolds. It also stars Will Ferrell and Olivia Spencer. All three sing and dance. The sound track is one that has a great message and makes you want to get up and dance along. It’s available on Apple+, but if you don’t have Apple+ you can listen to the fantastic, upbeat sound track on iTunes. Each song has the message that to make a better world all we have to do is Do a Little Good everyday. No one is Unredeemable. If we each do our part to spread kindness and love we will create a Ripple of goodness. I encourage you to check it out and feel good at the end.
I don’t usually make New Year’s Resolutions, but I want to declare now that I’m going to be doing as much good every day as I can in 2024 because I believe we can create a better world for everyone to live in. The more people I bring along with me, the faster we’ll make a big difference for every living thing on this planet.
I’m not sure if I’ll be posting any more essays the rest of this month. I’m finishing up two projects that are important to me. So, if I don’t connect with you here, have a wonderful holiday season no matter what celebrations you participate in.
Thanks for reading, liking, and commenting. I send you love and blessings.
