Merry Christmas

This Christmas Eve I find myself sad and uncertain.  The absurdity of this is not lost on me.

It would be perhaps justified if I were the street person with no warm bed, or food this Christmas night; the child for whom the wonder of Christmas is subsumed by the struggle to survive; the old one forgotten and invisible, who has not felt a kind human touch for years.

I want too much.  Much too much, it seems.
