"This Christmas, mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion and replace it with trust. Write a letter. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest suspicion and replace it with trust. Write a letter. Give a soft answer. Encourage youth. Manifest you loyalty in word and deed. Keep a promise. Forgo a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Apologize. Try to understand. Examine your demands on others. Think first of someone else. Be kind. Be gentle. Laugh a little more. Express your gratitude. Welcome a stranger. Gladden the heart of a child. Take a pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love and then speak it again."
- Howard W. Hunter
