Day 10 - December 10

Celebrate the 25 Days of Christmas

By Esther Lombardi, About.com

It's the tenth day of December. It's Emily Dickinson Day. It's also the day the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded, which is appropriate, since it's also Human Rights Day. Take a look at the reading selection for today.

What do writers say?

"Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas."
--Calvin Coolidge
