Today’s Advent Word: MEND. “This Christmas, mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Write a love letter. Play. Keep a promise. Share some treasure. Forgo a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Listen. Apologize if you were wrong. Be kinder. Be gentler. Have faith. Laugh a little. Laugh a little more. Welcome a stranger. Resist prejudice. Express your gratitude. Take pleasure in beauty. Gladden the heart of a child. Speak love. Speak it again. Speak it still once again.” ❤️💚 #adventword #mend #advent2016 #santamonicatree2015
