Christmas Music

So...I have something to admit. I have been listening to Christmas music since before Halloween. It started with my lovely roommate who for a week or so had an obsession with a Christmas CD--it was all she listened to. So, I gradually started listening to Christmas music. Normally, this is not the case. Up until this year, I have been a staunch "Christmas music shouldn't be played before Thanksgiving" kind of girl. But I rather like this new obsession with Christmas music. It means that every day as I am studying for a test or wasting time on Facebook, I am also listening to music that is all about the birth of Christ. I have started realizing that this is not such a bad thing--I am taking more time to think about my Savior and the impact that He has had on my life, about my goals and where they are taking me, and about just how loved I really am. So, even once Christmas is long past and a new year has started, I think that every once in a while I am going to turn off the Rascal Flatts or Michael Buble, and take some time to listen to something spiritual and ponder.
