At the heart of the message of the Savior of the world is a single, glorious, wonderful, still largely untried concept. In its simplest terms the message is that we should seek to overcome the selfishness we all seem to be born with, that we should overcome human nature and think of others before self.

This Christmas and every Christmas will be richer by sharing and enjoying gifts that cannot be held but only felt.

I believe our differences are the little pinches of salt that can make the marriage seem more flavorful.
