So what if the economy fell in the toilet, attempted to climb out, and is being flushed down again? So what if unemployment is knocking on everyone’s door? So what if the current U.S. congress is rendering themselves obsolete by rampant self-interest and irresponsibility? This holiday season it’s time to spend time at home with family, remembering that today’s news is tomorrow’s footnote. However the empires of man rise and fall, family endures. If you have some time, put on some wellies and go feed the ducks.
Have a nap with a loved one.
Or just show off your new socks and shoes. Spend some time with family and world’s problems will no longer seem so dire.
