Book excerpt: Who doesn't love Santa Claus? From award-winning photographer Ron Cooper comes a beautifully curated collection of fifty professional Santas from across the country. We Are Santa is a fascinating glimpse into the lives of those who slip into the red suit to spread Christmas cheer. Before and after portraits, behind-the-scenes stories of custom made costumes and specialized training, and surprising anecdotes of on-the-job encounters bring these Santas to life. Just as Humans of New York captures the lives of everyday people, We Are Santa celebrates the humanity of everyday Santas. From a third-generation Kris Kringle to an Orthodox Jew who has been playing Santa for fifty years, Cooper's portraits are a testament to the holiday spirit. When Santa Mike, a Navy veteran and aircraft mechanic, meets a six-year-old girl with a prosthetic hand just like his own, he says, "Her eyes got big, and she threw her arms around my neck. It was the highlight of my season. That's why I’m Santa."

Whatever and whoever it is - we can overcome it, together, together! The adventure can be the smallest, the bravest, the most skillful and the most cunning, but together we can find the solution to the puzzle, the secret can be revealed, the most crooked mouth can be drawn into a smile, thus drifting off to sleep. Most of the time, adults tell stories to children, even though fairy tales are the terrain of children's soul and imagination, but in today's world, adults also need fairy tales more and more to find themselves. This Christmas storybook, which is about love, is a possibility. Love is the greatest gift we can give and receive. Love in it is not only our family and friends, but also the way we care about the world and everyone who lives. Love does not depend on external circumstances, but resides in our hearts. Love is shown not only in words, but also in actions. Love remains not only in happy moments, but also in difficult times. In this book, we can read stories that show different forms and manifestations of love. Stories that teach us how to love ourselves, how to love each other, how to love nature, how to love culture, how to love peace. Stories that make you laugh, move you, make you think, and inspire you. Such tales to warm our souls and recall the magic of Christmas on these gloomy, cold days. The message of this book is that love is the most important thing in life and that we should share love with others, with each other. Love is valid not only at Christmas, but every day of the year. Love is important not only in our personal relationships, but also on a social and global level. Love is not only an emotion, but also a value and a force that can change the world. Love is what binds us together and what helps us overcome difficulties. Love is what gives meaning and purpose to our lives. Love is what makes us happy! We hope this book brings joy and light to the lives of readers and helps them find and experience love every day. We wish everyone a Blessed, Happy and Peaceful Christmas!

Download or read book Keeping Christmas written by James A. Hopwood and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year—or at least we want it to be. Too often our celebration of Jesus’ birthday is overwhelmed by bright lights and tinsel, overspending and overeating, plus constant chatter about a “war on Christmas.” Can’t we do better than this? There are two Christmases. One is sacred. One is secular. The two have clashed in one “culture war” or another for 1,700 years. Christmas is not (as some falsely claim) a pagan holiday, but pagan-influenced traditions are part of the seasonal clutter. Keeping Christmas is about helping you find joy in a season of excess and strife. Part survival guide, part history, part cultural commentary, and all laced with spiritual reflection, this book is about how you can celebrate in ways that are most meaningful to you and your family. It’s not easy to thread your way through the Christmas maze. But if Ebenezer Scrooge could learn to keep Christmas well, so can you. Maybe it’s time to reinvent Christmas. Maybe we can get it right this time.
