What is your favorite Christmas song? Mine is "Silver Bells" by Ray Evans and Jay Livingston. It has been my best song ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in a small town (current population 17,000 souls) in Pennsylvania, and I had not seen much outside that place. So I was quite sure the city the song referred to was the downtown area of my little town.
Now as I got older, I visited some real cities. Pittsburgh. New York. Sydney. Mexico City. Chicago. Los Angeles. I was telling this story to someone just the other day, and I laughed at my little girl naivete. So imagine my surprise when I got an email from an old friend who still lives there. She said tonight she was stopped at a red light on Main Street and thought I might like a picture, so she snapped this for me. Such a coincidence. Or not, if you don't believe that anything is a coincidence or accident.
I hope you are enjoying the season. I hope wherever you live, your city is "dressed in holiday style."
