Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
When we meet this year, we will be celebrating an anniversary, the 800th anniversary of the first Christmas live celebration at Greccio, Italy. Remember it was the time Francis brought together the village and the animals and enacted the first Christmas. The people came together and celebrated.
