You are very, very kind @wesphilbin. I did feel very 'good' when I wrote this. I think I owe part of that feeling to @valued-customer, who wrote a blog about giving a bicycle to a child and then told me about his Christmas tree (a branch). The bicycle was lacking a seat, but somehow they made due. I think this interaction was the source of my good feeling. My story, The Gift followed, and the good feeling spread--to you and others. Isn't it wonderful? A kind of Christmas gift we can enjoy all year round.

I very much appreciate your kind and generous nature. Thank you.

Happy New Years. May the year bring health and peace to you and your family.
