Merry Christmas!

Today is Christmas, the seventh I have now seen since surviving, lymphoma. I am so grateful for this. My Christmas wish is that people would somehow learn to get along and live in peace the world over, but this seems impossible. At least on this day, and this season, people tend to be a little nicer and a little more kind and thoughtful.

It is also Chanukah this week, and tonight is the fifth night of Chanukah. So for this day, Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah!

Feliz Navidad!

Boas Festas e Feliz Ano Novo!

Joyeux Noel!

Froehliche Weihnachten!

Buone Feste Natalizie!

Meri Kirihimete!

Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
