say at this time of year.

some of you say Happy Christmas
instead of Merry Christmas.

19
49360

00:52
that I like to think about
and one of the things
20
52510
2710
00:55
that I wish for is that
everyone in the world
21
55220
3690
00:58
would be a little more kind to each other.
22

as we head towards December
31st and as we head
24

01:13
I just wanna communicate to
you some positive energy,
27
73270
4670
01:17
just an encouragement to
be nice to each other,
28
77940
3380
01:21
to help make the world a better place
29
81320
2290
01:23
by just being as helpful as you can be
30
83610
2660
01:26
to the people around you.
31
86270
2060
01:28
That's all I ask for.
32
88330
1150
01:29
That would be the wish I would give
33
89480
1930
01:31
for this Christmas season.
34
91410

01:32
And if I asked for one gift,
it would be that everyone
35
92910
3240
01:36
in the world was just a little
more kind to each other.
