Many Lights
December 18, 1997
Christmas, Chanukah, and Kwanzaa will be celebrated this year a lot closer to each other than usual. Chanukah begins on Tuesday night, Wednesday is Christmas Eve, and the first day of the seven-day holiday of Kwanzaa begins on Dec. 26.
The confluence of the holidays means, among other things, that there will be lights shining from many quarters through the winter darkness in the next two weeks.
May those who light the lights, all over the world, be united, too, in peace and harmony. Merry Christmas! Happy Chanukah! And Habari gani!
