I LOVE THIS HOLIDAY

I haven't accomplished anything...ANYTHING...this Christmas. My gift giving will be uninspired. All the dear friends I have ignored will remain so. All I can do is have a La Cage moment and sing loudly..."Life's not worth a damn...Til you can say, 'Hey World! I am what I am."

So...do something wonderful for Christmas. Tell someone you love them. Eat a lot...and remember why we are celebrating.

Late on Christmas Eve I'll get a special feeling. Like a mantle of new-fallen snow, a feeling of contented anticipation as I sit in the dim light of the twinkling Christmas tree. Outside....

"The market place is empty
No more traffic in the street.
All the builders' tools are silent
No more time to harvest wheat;
Busy housewives cease their labors,
In courtrooms no debate.
Work on earth is all suspended,
As the King comes thru the gate.

Oh, the King is coming,
The King is coming!
I just heard the trumpets sounding,
And now I see His face.

Oh!The King is coming.
The King is coming.
Praise God! He's coming for me!"]]> Sat, 20 Dec 2008 19:49:31 +0000 http://robsherwood.com/blog/index.php?number=359#comment
