Peace, goodwill towards men

Christmas marks the celebration of a birthday, but this birth was not just any, it was the birth of the Christ child.  Even for those whose belief may not recognize Christ as the savior of the world, this familiar story is well known, even to those who don't believe.

However, regardless of one's religious convictions, few could refute the fact that the true message of Christmas is the message of hope.  Of course, one must escape all the commercialism that has become synonymous with this day first in order to find the true meaning, but that's what my hope is for everyone this Christmas day.  My wish is for peace and goodwill towards all.  Merry Christmas!
