If people during one of the most brutal wars can call a truce, why can't we?
I'm proposing no political talk from either side for the next 36-48 hours. Focus on the good around us for a change.
Merry Christmas (or your winter solstice holiday of choice)!

In 1914, 100,000 soldiers paused WWI to share gifts, carols & a football match. The Christmas Truce was a rare moment of peace born from the ranks—an exception in a history where war rarely stops for the holidays. #WWI #ChristmasTruce

On Christmas Eve 1914, WWI soldiers laid down their weapons for the Christmas Truce. Enemies sang carols, exchanged gifts, and even played soccer in no man's land. A brief moment of peace in the midst of war, reminding us of our shared humanity. 🎄⚽ #ChristmasTruce #soccer #football #peaceonearth

In the middle of war, soldiers once laid down their weapons on #ChristmasDay Not because the conflict ended — but because humanity interrupted it.
