Merry Christmas,,HOGS

A woman was out Christmas shopping with her two children. After many
hours of looking at row after row of toys and everything else imaginable,
and after hours of hearing both her children asking for everything they saw on those many shelves, she finally made it to the elevator with her two kids.

She was feeling what so many of us feel during the holiday season time
of the year. Overwhelming pressure to go to every party, every
housewarming,taste all the holiday food and treats, getting that perfect gift for every single person on our shopping list, making sure we don't forget anyone on our card list, and the pressure of making sure we respond to everyone who sent us a card.

Finally the elevator doors opened and there was already a crowd in the
car. She pushed her way into the car and dragged her two kids in with
her and all the bags of stuff. When the doors closed she couldn't take
it anymore and stated, "Whoever started this whole Christmas thing should be found, strung up and shot."

From the back of the car, everyone heard a quiet calm voice respond,
"Don't worry, we already crucified Him." For the rest of the trip down
the elevator it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop.

WOW! Well put! I've been thinking that too many people think that Christmas is about a fat man in a red suit and that they have forgotten who it is that we are suppose to be celebrating and how we should be doing it. That exchanging gifts is about giving not getting. It's sorta set my mood this year and it's not a pretty one. Stupid of me! Thanks for the post Scott, it's a good one.

Merry Christmas everyone!
