Christmas Is a Season of Joy and Happiness

There is something in the very season of the year that gives a charm to the festivity of Christmas. At other times we derive a great portion of our pleasures from the mirror of beauties of nature. But in the depth of winter when nature lies spoiled of every charm and wrapped in her shroud of sheeded snow, we turn for our gratifications to moral sources. The pitchy gloom with a howl makes the heart dilate on entering the room filled with the glow and warmth of the evening fire.
