Merry Christmas, Boys and Girls.
I have three presents for you today.
The first is a present you can unwrap all year round. This is a gift that goes on and on each time you have a conversation with a friend or being with a friend without saying a single word because it seems the right thing to do. This is your act of kindness you show to others, even strangers, day after day.
The second is a gift you carry all the time with you and no matter how many times you open it, it’s always new. This gift makes you feel cozy and warm and yet, you don’t wear it. It’s not made of wool or fur but this will keep you warmer than being in front of a fireplace.
What kind of gift is this? You ask.
This is the gift of your imagination and all the things that come from it.
Things that no one has ever seen like talking cats, flying frogs or surfers riding waves to another planet. You can imagine whatever you want to be and the bigger your imagination, the more you can become. All things become possible with imagination.
The third gift is one that is bigger than all the gifts in the world. You can put into this gift, all the things you receive today and you will still have room for more. You can’t find this gift in any store. And once you get this gift, it keeps coming again and again and each time you share it, you keep getting more and more.
This is story telling. Stories for all the Christmases and for every day of your life. Someone once used her imagination and wrote this story about me called Wordsworth the Poet and here I am today, with you.
Enjoy the magical wonder of your world with kindness, imagination and keep telling your stories.
Wordsworth, the Poet.
