Reason For The Season

Reason For The Season - Mike Love - Growing up in my household in Southern California on the corner of Mt. Vernon & Fairway, Music was an integral part of life, But there was no other time of the year where music was more part of life than during the holidays. The grand piano, organ and harp in the living room provided the instrumental backing to all the vocals. The Holidays were a time of family get-togethers, gift giving, wonder feasts and most memorably, Christmas carols sung in harmony with one another. Songs Like "Jingle Bell Rock" and "Little St. Nick" combined with songs that remind us of the Reason for the Season; celebrating an event that took place in the little town of Bethlehem over 2000 years ago, the birth of Jesus, which for many became a birth of hope, peace, unity & love. As the words of "O Holy Night" say "His Law is love and His gospel is peace, "Jesus taught us to love one another. That message needs to be heard today more than ever before. So, as we celebrate and enjoy all the wonderful traditions of the holiday season, Let's hold in our hearts the Reason for the Season. Peace & Love Mike Love
