Remember Wacky Wednesday – a book by Dr. Seuss? A story where chaos is on the loose? Every page has pictures with things reversed. Order is banished and logic is cursed.
“A worm chasing a bird, a mouse chasing a cat“, and the Z before Y in the alpha-bat. It’s a fictional book for kids, it’s true. But Christmas for real is now crazy, too!
Jesus is the reason for the season, we’re told. But it seems that for most, He’s left out in the cold.
The miracle of God becoming a Child, is now just ignored or mentally filed.
Decorations, Christmas music, festive parties galore. Buying gifts online now instead of a store.
The Christmas season more than six weeks long, ends on Christmas day, doesn’t that seem wrong?
I’ll now stop channeling my inner Dr. Seuss. For making my point, it no longer has use.
