Some loose thoughts on the magic of Christmas
December 24 2011, 9:24 PM
When you are very young, Christmas is a magical time. We all know that. But
it is magical when you have children, too, for .then you are the magician. I realized that the hard age for Christmas is in your 20s. The magic
bypasses you then. No wonder people of that age cut up Christmas. The magic
they once held is lost. Christmas is magic not because the day itself is magical, but because we
invest the magic that we have within us on that day. It would be better if
we brought forward that magic every day, but one day is better than no
days. We have such, well, .. Magic!..within us. We need to be reminded to
let it out.
