Christmas Eve Walk

I finally made it out of the house today and just came back from a glorious 25 minute walk around the neighborhood. There was just a little sunlight left, and the weather was still cold, although not as oppressive as it has been.

I was very happy to be walking, enjoying the Shabbat, and also feeling that the peaceful spirit was heightened by Christmas arriving tomorrow. Although I am not a Christian, I still feel inspired by the thought of someone as important as Jesus being born, even though the Jewish tradition does not regard him as the Messiah.
