"It is not the ctitic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

The Forgotten Carols

~Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.
~Author unknown, attributed to a 7-year-old named Bobby

So, every year my family goes to The Forgotten Carols. Honestly, it's probably my favorite Christmas tradition. It really brings the Christmas spirit and I love going with my family and the story and the music and the whole nine yards.

If you ever get a chance to go, do it. We see it every year and it doesn't get old. I could listen to the music over and over again. For the past few years my favorite song has been I Cannot Find My Way/Three Kings. So, I thought I'd post it below to share with you :)
