Merry Christmas!

New Hope and Positive Changes

It has been a year of great challenges, with man-made tragedies, natural disasters and economic hardships. We struggle with how to get into the holiday spirit when so many have suffered such great losses. However, this is the perfect time to make a positive difference. Please stop by New Stories, Old Book to share in the discussion as I reflect on Charles Dicken's A Christmas Carol. Happy Holidays!

Feeling Nostalgic

I love this post on New Stories, Old Book blog about the nostalgia of fairy tales and biblical fanfic. A simple name or line from a story came prompt so many memories, taking you back to when and where you first heard it or even who you were with or what you were wearing. It's always fun to take a trip down memory lane, even sometimes when the memories are painful, as every experience good or bad molds you into the person that you are today. Let's stroll, shall we?
