They can only treat the symptoms. But this has been this way for months. It doesn t have to be terrible and awful either. There is a woman who gets a little depressed at this time of the year. Christmas is supposed to be happy and perfect.
Nothing is terribly wrong, but nothing is even close to perfect either.
The kids just don t do what is expected. The schedule is so hectic. Plans have to be changed and postponed because of the weather. Each year that goes by is another reminder that this was again another year when the dreams of young adulthood were not realized and the reality sets in that they might never come true. We want God to come to us on our terms and fix what is wrong in our lives.
