Joy
Have you ever noticed how often the word joy is mentioned in the Bible? Also there is rejoice, be of good cheer, hope, praise. All positive words. I don't think the word happy is used at all, or merry. Blessed and blessings are throughout the Bible. Happiness is dependent on the circumstances. Joy is in spite of circumstances. All this to say that I wish you all a BLESSED AND JOYFUL (Joy-filled) CHRISTMAS!
And now, I'd better go get ready for the day (after I have a cup of coffee.)
Merry Christmas to all my Xanga friends!

Yes, joy to the world which includes us.
I love your definitions of happy vs. joyful!! I'm going to use them from now on!!
Hope your day was special.
Lots of joy to you too, Gracia ~
Thanks Gracia, and I hope you had a joyful Christmas
