Merry Christmas
The Things That Define Us
So much pain
So much love
So much joy
We have been to hell and back. We have been up and down. We have found out how strong we are. The things that define us are on the inside. The iron will to survive. The softness towards the innocents in this world. The delight in all things wonderous. Yes that is the life of our people.
Lo, there do I see my father.
Lo, there do I see my mother.
And my sister and my brother
Lo, there do I see the line of my people
Back to the beginning.
Lo, they do call to me.
They bid me take my place among them
In the halls of Valhalla
Where the brave may live forever.
Never give up. Never give in. Never. Never.
Joy is your inheritance. Strength is your inheritance. Be joyful this Yule. When the wild wind howls know that you are part of it!
