A Christmas Parable

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


On Christmas day and all through the land the spirit of the season was no where to be had. Oh, sure there were some places where the spirit prevailed but in many instances when buyers were scurrying we lost the true meaning of Christmas and good will toward all. The chill of the season has interrupted what should be the best time of year and yet for too many it is just another day of trying to survive. The winter winds are already hollowing that cut right to the bone. Hopelessness and misery brings tears of sorrow and woe. The down trodden masses whose burdens hang heavy has replaced what should be the one time of year where compassion, benevolence and humanity ought to shine through.

As the clouds of uncertainty hover overhead a nation is fracturing under distress. The anxiety of millions continues to mount. The political discord of this season has brought untold hostility instead of unity. With impeachment hearings already bogged down and a Presidential campaign where some candidates keep spinning around have helped make this time of year one for the record books. All for the wrong reasons though as this nation will at sometime remember. History will not be kind  when we look back to this time of this year. Instead of unity the divisions mount. Instead of cohesiveness we are unglued. The vine of opportunity has long since withered and died. Today, the turmoil and mistrust between nation have already begun. It is this world we live in that has become so precarious, The climate change deniers that control much of the world have brought this planet too close to disaster. With the Republican mindset that is in play in much of the nation has thwarted any progress toward that unity of purpose we so desperately need. 

One cannot help wonder what went wrong. It wasn’t that long ago we happily said Merry Christmas to all and now we are encouraged to say Happy Holidays instead. We have since lost the meaning of the spirit of the season. And, in doing so we see what has happened. It is so sad because now all we see is a mad rush for everything we see. The herds of people trampling in every mall have made it very apparent we have become obsessed with things which really have no meaning. So now when we are without the essence of this season it is no wonder that as a nation our ability to put in practice the true meaning of the season has been lost.

As a new year commences where resolutions are made only to be broken we should not loose sight of what really should matter. This nation cannot survive the way things are. The status-quo hasn’t worked nor will it tomorrow. We have to look back to a simpler time when we all said Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for it was those times which made things matter. How things have changed. The changes brought about by disingenuous policies and a sociological shift have undermined our ability to comprehend what really should matter. 

The spirit of the Christmas season should be with us all year long. Getting back to saying and meaning Merry Christmas instead of happy holiday even though there are so many religions we have to remember we all together in the fellowship of man. It is this spirit of Christmas that understands that compassion, tolerance, benevolence and humanity all are part of what this season is all about.
