I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone on this forum a very
Merry Christmas and all the best in 2007!
I hope Dave will join in with his special blessings for all of us. You do it
so nicely, Dave!

I am sure most of you know the Christmas song called: "My Grown Up Christmas
List" (music by David Foster). It so happens that this is my list too. For
those that are not familiar with the lyrics, here it is ( Natalie Cole's and
Barbara Streisend versions are totally awesome if you ever have a chance to
listen to those two):
Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
and wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree
Well heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
(there'd be no more lives torn apart).
In any case, for all of you, here is Kelly Clarkson singing this song on You Tube:
