I feel sorry for Christmas. Everyone wants it to be something that suits their needs...
A symbol of corporate greed and consumerism...
...a transmogrified pagan winter holiday...
...a foreshadowing of Christ's bloody death...
...,a rallying cry for socialism...
Ach, you get the picture, eh?
This year I'm going to try to just let it BE. I'm going to try not to let any meaningful thoughts come to mind. At all.
I'll try to sing along with Charlie Brown and not feel guilty,
laugh with Shrek and not patronize,
pray during a televised Midnight Mass and not feel superior.
It may even work.
