I just finished wrapping of last presents and got them under the tree. I wonder if there's anything as exhausting mentally as searching everywhere for presents to buy for those who have everything. Imagination, love and generosity gets you nowhere trying to find a gift that is surprising, thoughtful and needed. For the future, I think I'll take a page from my sister who bought a goat to give to a family in Somalia in my name. For my birthday, a well to provide good water to 1,500 African villagers. I can't see the clutter here of anything in Christ's name. Merry Christmas to all of you.
