With the Christmas season approaching, I want
to share this listening activity on my language-learning Web site that reflects the
goodness in people as they think of others. The story isn't based on
real events, but its message can be a reminder to show kindness to
others, especially those who are suffering:

Over the years, I have tried to emphasize to my children how Christmas can be season of giving: giving of oneself, your time, your talents, and your encouragement to those who most need it. You can't buy happiness, but you can certainly cheer up a downtrodden soul.
Even a simple smile can go a very long way to making someone's day.
