Happy Holidays

This comes a little late, due to my enhanced laziness since exams ended. A quick copy-paste job from the annual holiday greetings we used to see on the UW Daily Bulletin:

So some of us go now to church,
and some to feast, and some to skis,
and some to bed -- and most of us
to loving friends and families --

though some must study or must work:
a dozen faiths, a thousand ways
to live in harmony with truth
through cold and dark December days.

We pause from labours, when we can,
and hear the season's whispered call
to burn the candles of our lives
for Peace on earth, good will to all.
