Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love!

Hamilton Wright Mabie

While not a household name today, Hamilton Wright Mabie was well known in his lifetime as an influential essayist and editor. His prolific works included a regular column in “Ladies’ Home Journal.” He was also a popular speaker, celebrated by Mark Twain and eulogized by President Teddy Roosevelt. Here he offers a jubilant, timeless take on the holiday season, reflecting on the collective energy so many of us feel as the festivities approach. Through the gatherings of friends and family, familiar carols on the radio, holiday festivals, and beloved traditions, here’s hoping we all find ourselves a little more likely to show love, practice generosity, and make room for joy in the coming months.
