I am busy decorating my Christmas tree - Learning to make paper snowflakes, thinking of new ways to decorate my tree EVEN MORE; thinking of a good menu for the Christmas eve(I have that tini-mini inkling that the Christmas eve dinner would be out somewhere nice:P), and in general having a good time preparing for more good times ahead! Amen to all the wishful thinking and the happy thoughts!
"Do I want to speak of the miracle of our Lord's divine transformation? Not really, no. I don't want to talk about his divinity. I'd rather talk about his humanity. I mean, you know, how he lived his life, here on Earth. His *kindness*, his *tolerance*... Listen, here's what I think. I think that we can't go around... measuring our goodness by what we don't do. By what we deny ourselves, what we resist, and who we exclude. I think... we've got to measure goodness by what we *embrace*, what we create... and who we include"
----A quote from the movie "Chocolat" which happens to be the most satisfactory definition of 'goodness' I've read so far. And the reason why this movie is one of the best I've seen.
