Notes On
Chiropractic
By Or. Henry L. Foley
December brings for a large
part of the world a season that
constitutes a happy and meaning
ful experience.
Candlelight and carols, tinsels
and toy, holly and homecomings ■
—all must be sandwiched be- |
tween the routine tasks of every- i
dm living.
Light hearted
crow ds of peo
ple dart in and
out of stores
and buses laden
with bundles
which seem
weightless when
mea s u red a
gainst the an
ticipated joy of
giving and re
ceiving.
Christmas symbolizes a great I
story, which is universal and I
rich in beauty and joy. The story I
itself is a poem, rich in imagery. I
It is easy, however, to become I
too submerged in the outward I
wrappings and so miss some of I
the inner core. of the inherent I
meaning of Christmas. I
The Christmas spirit need not I
be linked only to a special sea- I
son. It should be stored away |
in the mind and heart, to be man
ifested throughout all the year,
in our every day dealings with
out fellow human beings.
In this time of hot and cold 1
wars, unprecedented violence and j
nuclear inspired fears, there is S
need for us to appropriate all ;
that Christmas can offer. ।
The Christmas message of .
"Peace on Earth” often seems ,
a forlorn hope, the remnant of
a shattered dream.
The shifting sands of distrust
and dishonor must be reenforced
with integrity and trust, and the
old-fashioned virtues.
This is the challenge being
thrown to individuals, societies
and nations, Christmas can be
appropriated and translated into
action each day of the year.
