"A Christmas Gift" by Steve Adams
As the weather cools and the Holidays approach, I remembered today, "it is time to decorate again."  
We have always put out a large display.  It grows over time because I try to add something new each year.  I tend to create scenes where each item creates its own little picture.  In a way, walking through our yard is like taking a short stroll through Disney.  When you pass one display, another comes into view.
Last year, we had a busy season and I only put out some basic lights.  I was just not in the festive mood and I was swamped with work at the time.
We have some folks in the neighborhood who do not get out much and I was talking to them over the summer.  At some point in the conversations, they ALL mentioned how they missed seeing my display last year and how they loved to sit by their window at night and watch.
That touched me deeply and I suddenly realized that how WE celebrate Christmas affects how OTHERS celebrate it too.
