Christmas Wishes

What’s every parent’s favorite Christmas Carol? Silent Night. Merry Christmas!

Did you know that Santa’s not allowed to go down chimneys this year? It was declared unsafe by the Elf and Safety Commission. Merry Christmas!

What did the stamp say to the Christmas card? Stick with me and we’ll go places! Merry Christmas!

Reflect upon your present blessings — of which every man has many — not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. Merry Christmas!

Christmas is never over, unless you want it to be… Christmas is a state of mind. Merry Christmas!

Christmas is a necessity. There has to be at least one day of the year to remind us that we’re here for something else besides ourselves. Merry Christmas!

At one time, most of my friends could hear the bell, but as years passed, it fell silent for all of them. Even Sarah found one Christmas that she could no longer hear its sweet sound. Though I’ve grown old, the bell still rings for me, as it does for all who truly believe. Merry Christmas!

A lovely thing about Christmas is that it’s compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together. Merry Christmas!

In our joy, we think we hear a whisper. At first it is too soft. Then only half heard. We listen carefully as it gathers strength. We hear a sweetness. The word is Peace. It is loud now. It is louder. Louder than the explosion of bombs. Merry Christmas!

No one should be alone on Christmas. Merry Christmas!

I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. Merry Christmas!

Remember, George: No man is a failure who has friends. Merry Christmas!

A little smile, a word of cheer, A bit of love from someone near, A little gift from one held dear, Best wishes for the coming year. These make a Merry Christmas!

Just remember, the true spirit of Christmas lies in your heart. Merry Christmas!

At Christmas, you tell the truth. Merry Christmas!

Haven’t you heard, dad? Christmas is a time for miracles. Merry Christmas!

I truly believe that if we keep telling the Christmas story, singing the Christmas songs, and living the Christmas spirit, we can bring joy and happiness and peace to this world. Merry Christmas!

Into this climate of fear and apprehension, Christmas enters, Streaming lights of joy, ringing bells of hope And singing carols of forgiveness high up in the bright air. The world is encouraged to come away from rancor, Come the way of friendship. Merry Christmas!

Time cannot be packaged and ribboned and left under trees for Christmas morning. Time can’t be given. But it can be shared. Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve was a night of song that wrapped itself about you like a shawl. But it warmed more than your body. It warmed your heart…filled it, too, with melody that would last forever. Merry Christmas!

I love snow for the same reason I love Christmas: It brings people together while time stands still. Cozy couples lazily meandered the streets and children trudged sleds and chased snowballs. No one seemed to be in a rush to experience anything other than the glory of the day, with each other, whenever and however it happened. Merry Christmas!

Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas. Merry Christmas!

For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child Himself. Merry Christmas!

Christmas, children, is not a date. It is a state of mind. Merry Christmas!

My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that? Merry Christmas!

Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before! What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas…perhaps…means a little bit more! Merry Christmas!

There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor. Merry Christmas!
