W.Well, it’s looking us right in the eye, so it’s time to get down to business. Everything is calm, everything is bright for some of us. For others, emotional and mental thunderclaps make a silent night impossible. And that’s Christmas.
‘And this is Christmas, for the weak and for the strong, for the rich and the poor, the world is so wrong’
When I was a kid, Christmas was always a big deal. And I tried to keep it special for my kids.
Over the years, I’ve experienced Christmas straight from the Hallmark Channel archives. And for a handful, I had to make do with a Whopper and a TV.
Given my personal experience and profession, I have a heart for those who struggle with Christmas, like our friend above.
And so this is Christmas.
I’ve been a fan of John Lennon since he and his bandmates appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964.
So naturally, I understood it when John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band released “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” in 1971. And imagine, it has become a Christmas classic.
Let’s do some of the letters…
So this is Christmas
And what have you done?
One more year
And a new one has just begun
And so this is Christmas.
Hope you have fun
The near and dear
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s good.
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas.
For the weak and for the strong
For the rich and the poor
The world is so bad
and very merry christmas
For black and white
For the yellows and reds
Let’s stop all the fighting
A very merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s good.
Without any fear
If you want to try it…
No matter who you are or your circumstances, you deserve love and peace. If you haven’t already, I hope you find them…
Bill
