....than 100
years ago, an amazing event took place amid the carnage of the First
World War. At Christmas, British and German troops stopped shooting.
They went over to each other's trenches and exchanged seasonal gifts.
Some even sang carols and played football. The next day, they got back
into their positions and continued with the carnage. Stories like this
often leave us wondering whether to laugh or cry.
Through our choices and our actions, we can take what is bad and make it good.
Gratitude is a quality similar to electricity: it must be produced and discharged and used up
in order to exist at all. (William Faulkner)
