The Spirit of Giving on Christmas
The other day I went to buy a lamp for my house at Lowe's and I could see the frenzy raging at best buy and I thought to myself, people don't give a rat's ass about one another anymore. Who are they even buying gifts for, themselves? Are they buying stuff just because a store says to do so with some silly sale where they are selling a product at the price it should be at anyway? In my home I stress that Christmas is about giving and not getting all hyped up about receiving. On Christmas morning my son will be volunteering, serving food at a shelter.
I do hope our lessons at home over time will prove stronger than retailers' advertising budgets that scream "More! More! Now! Now!"
From our house to each of yours. Merry Christmas!
