Smiling’s my favorite!! #TheRunningWriter

Elf is my favorite Christmas movie ever. His pure (and somewhat naive) outlook on the world is refreshing. His untainted joy. His smile.

It’s refreshing. It’s also a great reminder to look for the joy in life, work, family.

It’s easy to lose that joy in the hustle and bustle of daily life–especially the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

If you haven’t seen the movie, watch it. If you have seen in, what was a favorite part of the movie for you?

Happy Christmas Eve, my friends.
