"The best day of the year is behind us once more. December 25 has come and gone, the presents are all unwrapped, Christmas Mass is over, and soon the 12 Days of Christmas will be behind us too. As if that isn't enough, Walmart and the gang are already moving on to Valentine's Day.
"BUT, no one is saying we have to ditch the Christmas Spirit.
"In fact, it's a pretty darn good idea to keep that spirit alive long after the tree is down and the lights are put away. Those Christmas songs talking about the baby Jesus and the newborn Savior of the world? They're more than just sentimental tunes we turn on once a year. There's power in those words, and there's something greater - Someone greater - that we can attach ourselves to permanently, should we be up to the challenge."
A recent Mountain Catholic post offered a number of ways (including intentionally thanking someone each day and continuing to read and share stories) we can keep the Christmas Spirit going throughout the year.
