The light was in the world, through whom the world was made, yet the world knew it not. The light came into its own creation, and yet people received it not. And from this fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. Christmas time is always a wonderful season. It's one of my favorite times of the year.
Families get together.
Most people get presents. I enjoy all the carols, and all the decorations. I enjoy all of the silly stuff that has accumulated and stuck to the basic story over the centuries. I like getting kissed under the mistletoe. I like peanut brittle, and fruit cake, and all that stuff.
