Giving: Seasonal
Oct. 29th, 2010 02:28 pmGiving, that was the key. But how could you give something when you had nothing? She paced back and forth inside the warehouse while she thought. Giving the experience of nothing would probably help them in the long run, but she doubted it would make a happy Christmas. Giving an experience, though--that could work. And what was the beginning of a really good experience. Loss. Losing something or someone. Losing your way on the mountain became an adventure. A serious illness that somebody recovered from became a miracle. She thought and thought. If Santa and his elves were there to help her, she'd have dived down everybody's chimney and taken away something that would be given back later in the day. That was key. Christmas Eve--take it away. Christmas Day--give it back. Really more of an Easter thing, but she doubted people would enjoy waiting that long.
