Asking Too Much

 

If you’ve never read The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry, make this the year you do. It’s a really beautiful, emotional short story about love and sacrifice and it will be one you remember in every Christmas to come. It takes less than 2 minutes…

 

There is always something to do. There are hungry people to feed, naked people to clothe, sick people to comfort and make well. And while I don’t expect you to save the world, I do think it’s not asking too much for you to love those with whom you sleep, share the happiness of those whom you call friend, engage those among you who are visionary, and remove from your life those who offer you depression, despair, and disrespect.”
