The essence of the human heart is wonderful. It can, by choice, expand and embrace both the suffering and the celebrations of the world, but every once in awhile it needs to connect to the human spirit, so that tragedy and pain is softened with compassion and caring.
Christmas is one of those special times for the heart to re-energize and become enlightened again. Christmas is an energy, a good feeling, a warm glow, that recharges the heart when we do something nice for someone else.
You can't see it, you just feel it. It comes from the little gifts: a courtesy, a gesture, a smile, a hug, a handshake, a kind remark, a willingness, however momentary, to place oneself in another's shoes and share the struggle and sanctity of life from a different perspective.
It happens when we choose to give what we seek the most.
