Here we are approaching the 11th hour for Christmas Concert 2005 preparation! Needless to say, both Lori and I are exhausted. Friday could not possibly be further away at this point. Why do we do it you ask? At this point, I don't know that I could honestly give you a pertinent answer that didn't have some abstract form of a four letter word in it. It usually becomes apparent in the reactions and comments occurring after the incident. I hope it does anyway, cause we are beat. I don't know how my beautiful wife is able to keep all this up as well as undergoing the tumultuous burden of living joy inside her tummy. Needless to say, words cannot express the sheer love and admiration I have for her this holiday season.
Christmas really is one of my favorite times of year despite what it may seem like as of now. I enjoy the REAL Christmas time. The weeks after the actual holy day. THAT is Christmas time. It would be nice if it were possible to educate the rest of the world on that slight oversight. The time of waiting and preparation has ceased, the holy day of our Lord and Savior's birth has come, and no more choir practices for two weeks. :) Seriously though, the real Christmas time is something I really enjoy despite the rest of humanity's desire to get the tree in the trash and the decorations down as soon as possible. That should be the real time of rejoicing! Maybe when we're not so caught up in the comings and goings of fads and commercialism, we'll be able to appreciate it a little more. But that is just the ramblings of a humble music minister...
Peace to all and all to Peace,
Adam
