Letter to Santa Dear Santa: The children have drawn their lists in sloppy handwriting for you, they've doubted your existence for a couple of years now, but I just say - if they don’t believe they don’t need presents. That ends THAT discussion! They don’t realize you represent Jesus guess I have failed in that regard, church always left me vaguely dissatisfied, I can’t reconcile the corporation with religion even though I know it takes organization and money to run a house of God, doesn’t it? I hope it’s okay if we just pray In our own way. Somehow, I think it is (Catholic guilt aside). So, anyway, the only present on my list you’ve already given me, by simply showing me where strength lies. Thank you and Happy Birthday! Forever Yours, Corinne |

I thought this was so amazing. Untangling the twine of our ever present Superman Santa who gives, if you're a "good" little boy, the most expensive gift on the market! Wonderful way to go back to the simplistic nature of the once was, Jesus. Happy Birthday aswell! "I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust." I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Corinne, this was very nice. I was hopping you'd include their christmas lists so we can see what they want. Park |

I know about Catholic guilt! I loved this one! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |
