Season’s best wishes

Commentary by Carla Howie

I would like to extend a sincere thank you to all the merchants, committees and organizations who worked so hard to plan, coordinate and implement a month-long Christmas event for Zionsville residents and visitors to enjoy. It’s a huge commitment on everyone’s part to work together, strategize the logistics and confirm the details to make something of this magnitude come together and appear flawless. Thank you. We are very fortunate to have a community such as this.

I would also like to extend to all of our Current readers a happy, joyous holiday. I hope it is filled with warm memories of time spent with family and friends, and that you keep those not present in loving thought. While it is easy to be overwhelmed with the festivities of the season, it’s important to reflect on each one of our blessings; whether they come wrapped in holiday paper or not.

I’ve maintained the same Christmas list for a long time. I’ll use this as another pitch to Santa that my Christmas wish list be granted. Continued health, happiness, love and prosperity for my family and friends, the end of student bullying across the nation, the end of racial prejudice, equality for all mankind and a world of peace. Not much to ask for, is it?

I think our 30th president, Calvin Collidge, captured the season well, “Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.” Merry Christmas!
