A Quote by Jean Piaget

And when we give each other Christmas gifts in His name, let us remember that He has given us the sun and the moon and the stars, and the earth with its forests and mountains and oceans--and all that lives and move upon them.

And, we may be grateful for the assurance that there is plan and purpose in this world, and in our own lives.
