My wife wanted my daughter and I to choose between about 14 different Christmas movies tonight. So the three of us chose "The Santa Clause" which starred Tim Allen and was made in 1994. So we watched it on DVD.
This has been a very depressing after Thanksgiving for some reason and I was amazed how much this movie perked us all up. It hit my wife very hard on Friday as she had spent most of her life going shopping for Christmas with her Mom on this day since she was a little girl. her mother passed away in 1999 and her Dad two years ago. Now both of us have lost all our parents. So, around the holidays we both feel a little lost. It's sort of like the little Christmas child in each of us died with our parents. But watching this movie really started to cheer us both up. It's like watching kids Christmas movies can at the very least re-awaken your little Christmas child within you. This might be enough to take away some of the terrible things happening on earth lately, so your subconscious mind (and to some degree your conscious one's too) can do some well needed healing around Christmas.
I was thinking that Christmas only exists because each one of us keeps it alive. It wouldn't exist and even the Christmas spirit wouldn't exist without each one of us. The same is true of Christian brotherhood which makes a state of trust to exist between all secular and religious Christians around the world to a greater or lesser degree. But the Secular Christian world exists and even the American and English forms of democracy exist precisely because of Christian religious and secular thought.
So, I guess what is important about this to understand is that Christmas in all its forms won't exist without all of us participating in it. And if we want it to exist at all, then we must do it. If we don't both Jesus and Santa Clause will be forever gone out of the consciousness of mankind. So, it's up to each one of us if we care enough to keep Santa and the Christmas spirit alive for thousands of years and more into the future.
