"Remember, if Christmas is not found in your heart, you will not find it under the tree." (Charlotte Carpenter)
And this is exactly the thinking that we want to transmit you this year. Let's find the real spirit of Christmas in our hearts. The spirit of brotherhood, solidarity, the spirit of love. Yeah we are talking of love. The love that He tried to teach us, and that we often forget to practice.
Since I was a child, with my godfather, Joaquim Pimentel, my godmother, Terezinha Alves and my loved mom and grandma, my Christmas has always been very special. We used to join in our house all those friends who were away from their families, which is very common among immigrants, and those who had no family. Those times were very beautiful and unforgettable. Other times I had the privilege to spend Christmas with beautiful old ladies in an asylum, with children at the Cancer Hospital in Sao Paulo, in orphanages, finally, with beautiful people and it taught me a lot. I can tell you that this is us that receive the best. I am not telling you this to show me, but to suggest you to do the same. It would be better doing so not only at Christmas, but it is a start. Try it, share the immense love you have in your hearts, first among the relatives course, because Christmas is a time of family, but also with those who are alone, poor, sick, hungry, even not known. You will know from that moment the true spirit of Christmas, and love that He wanted to show us. Adélia and I wish you all a Christmas of bright, with a lot of love. Look below our message of Christmas and New Year (wait to load everything, it has been done with great affection thinking of you).
I will talk to you next week. Love and enjoy the festivities with moderation! Take care!
