Great post, Dak Holliday. Society gets too caught up in the commercialization of Christmas, and I sometimes wonder if we've too easily lost sight of what's truly important and why we celebrate this glorious occasion (which is NOT to finance the retailers' bottom line).
The loss you speak of has hit my family hard this year (3 people we cared so much for plus a great dog of 12 years). But through all of that loss, I still find that I gain much more joy in giving to others than when I receive, and am truly blessed that our children have been taught these values. Merry Christmas fellow Bulldogs!!!
