The Grinch was born with a heart two sizes too small. Well, no wonder he’s so grumpy. For most of us it can be a challenge to stay happy with a regular sized heart! But in this popular story his heart grows. How?
Well, Cindy Lou Who certainly plays a role. She was not to be thrown off her Christmas ideal by the Grinch’s grumpiness. But what made his heart grow three sizes on that fateful day? He felt something. He felt a shift in himself. He looked at the Whos in Whoville celebrating without one single present or one morsel of food for their Christmas feast. He began to FEEL the spirit of the Whos in Whoville. Once he began to feel the intensity of caring and the spirit of joy…his heart did what hearts do. It expanded. And once expanded, once opened up…well, love poured out.
My Christmas wish is that you feel the spirit of this season…the season of light and love and caring. That you feel it to the depth of your heart and soul…so much so that your heart expands and the warmth it generates fills your life, your family, your community and beyond.
Merry Christmas
