And if you're listening at home, sing along.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved our breath.

Aloha and Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays to each and every one of you.

Now, it has been a crazy year by all measures.

It has gone by quickly and it seems like we're at a place in time where nothing is safe from being politicized or being attacked.

Not even Christmas.

Now, you hear about this sometimes being talked about in the mainstream media and people talk about Christmas being canceled and others in the mainstream media saying,

well, no, no, no, that's just some far right wing conspiracy.

But let's just look at the facts.

As people celebrate Hanukkah, it is customary to greet them with Hanukkah Samyak at the end of Ramadan,

who wish our Muslim brothers and sisters, Eid Mubarak, and as Hindu celebrate Duoli around the world, we wish people a happy Duoli.

But for some reason, when it comes to Christmas, the cancer culture brigade tells us, hey, you're not allowed to say Christmas, you're not allowed to say Merry Christmas.

Instead, they tell us you have to say happy holidays because otherwise you might offend someone.

Now, trying to erase Jesus Christ from Christmas is an example of the depth of spiritual erosion in this country that we're seeing and the length and efforts that people are going through to try to erase God and especially Christianity from every corner and facet of our public lives.

Now, so this time of year that's meant to be and even marketed as a joyful time of year, the reality is that it is unfortunately filled with increasing rates of depression and sadness and loneliness and emptiness and tragically suicide.

Too much of our society is missing the true meaning of Christmas.

Instead, promoting superficial materialism, we are all bombarded with ads, whether they're popping up on Twitter or Instagram or Facebook.

We have commercials on television, billboards all telling us, hey, happiness can be purchased for the low low price of $9.99 or $25, whatever it might be.

Trying to get us to believe truly that we are going to find happiness in these things rather than focusing on and celebrating the real reason of Christmas, celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ and His message of love for God and love for one another.

So because of all of this focus on just about everything but Jesus Christ message and Christmas, it's easy to forget what it's really all about, truly giving, being of service to others, making a positive impact with our lives and that in doing so, this is what brings us true happiness.

This is what brings us greater happiness than being served by someone else.

This is what gives us true fulfillment, giving more than getting.
