Are you boxing up the decorations or do you leave them up until Valentine’s Day? Heading out to return a gift? I always thought a gift tells us more about the giver than the receiver.
For instance. I sent my big sister a movie, Love Actually. It’s my favorite Christmas movie. It’s about loss, betrayal, unrequited love and finding love when you least expect it. The famous ensemble cast floats along on the most incredible music. I watch it every year.
If you, like my sister, have never seen Love Actually, this English take on Father Nick is worth a look. And staying on the British side, why not listen to Her Majesty the Queen’s Christmas Message!
It’s about peace and reconciliation. About reaching out to one another, across distances and cultural divides. It will only be on YouTube for a few weeks. And notice how the Queen is wearing a lavender dress. Just like this little ballerina.
Love those purple wings!
