1. Mindful of those who don’t celebrate Christmas today- grateful for other faiths, ways of living and looking at the world. If it weren’t for Buddhism, for example, and its prevalence in America, I wouldn’t have access to a fraction of the enlightening material I love so much. Hinduism, with its yogic teachings too. Grateful for all celebrating Hanukkah today too.
