Well, this isn't the way any of us hoped to encounter the holiday season. These nerve wracking circumstances have reminded me to hold those I love close, and keep near that which is most important to me. Please stay safe this holiday season, and I hope that you all find time despite the smoke and stress to remember the spirit of the season: to be selfless of heart and generous in our love, especially for those in our community that have lost a great deal.
I hope you also find time to laugh with your family, and feel the true joy of Hanukkah and Christmas. On the eve of this break, I hope you'll permit me, without judgement or concern toward any "religious" agenda, to share the final line line of the classic children's story we began watching last week: “…and it was always said of him [Scrooge], that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Tiny Tim observed, God Bless Us, Every One!” See you in a couple weeks.
