Merry Christmas!

Repost: Christmas With The Peanuts Gang

If we are honest, we will see that adults create Santa for ourselves, not our children. When we teach our children about Santa we live vicariously in the charmed, Santa-filled world we lost when the veil of childhood was removed, when weightless joy transformed into the heavy burden of a scary world.

For me, Christmas is Peanuts - the comic strip, not the legume.

Christmas sounds like jazz pioneer Vince Guaraldi and it and it looks a magic, dancing Beagle asleep on his A-Frame doghouse. If, however, you prefer a religious explanation, Linus beautifully and humbly explains it in two sublime minutes.
