We walk through this life with a determination and forethought. I am sure we all try to be as good and positive as we can.
We can touch others and they can touch us. If we let it happen. If we are open to it.
During the holidays I find that goodness, mercy, consideration, love, hope, tolerance and caring are closer to the surface. We are more sensitive and aware.
What do you think is the reason that this only seem to be seen during the holidays and not that much other times during the year?

i don't get out much but is it really just holidays? i mean my neighbor here has been very nice before holidays and some others. but it could be most just have more free time on holidays off work and all?

There are some folks who are very nice all year round. But what about all the things we are seeing in the news?

I think if you are talking about Christmas time..it is nearly the start of a new year and people want to be good and hopeful and kind..like to start over again, maybe atone for their neglect the rest of the year.

@celticeagle we should care all the time, though we can't always afford to be materially charitable

I think it's more evident ..at holidays.. because there are more reminders everywhere to encourage us to spend money on loved ones and people we care about... without all the external memory jogging I think thinking of others gets lost in the general pace of busy lives....

Because its when baby Jesus was born, and that gives people hope. Unless you do not believe, if nt I do not know why people who do not believe celebrates Christmas.

I think It has to do with our own life, if we are ok we are more able to look at the other.

The spirit of the season gets lost , I think in the rush through life
