Dehydrated Orange Ornaments
The Christmas music is on. I haven't listened to the news in weeks now and I feel guilty by this decision. There is incredible suffering in the world. There is incredible inequality. I think about war. I think about the children who must endure it, forever trapped in a labyrinth of pain and fear. I shift my focus to own children. And it is times like this: Christmas music on, softly floating snow, faces of excitement for the changing season and a craft on our table, to focus our ever shifting minds. It is times like these; I can see just how wonderful life can be.
