The Simple Things ~
by Deborah Ann Belka I use to buy my dad, a nice tie, my mom would get, a pretty blouse and the kids were happy to receive anything to do, with Mickey Mouse. But, now a days I get a list, that makes me feel like Santa Claus and deviating from it . . . is like breaking, the consumer laws. What happen to the simple things, like a good book or a fun board game now if it isn't something technical it is considered to be dull and lame. In the good-old days of yore, giving gifts was a pleasure but now it's all about grabbing "Black Fridays" biggest treasure. I use to enjoy buying presents, for all the people who I love but now when I go to the mall all I get, is pushed and shoved. Shopping today is not the same, it's become a real nightmare the only time I hear Christ' name is when people cuss and swear. I used to buy my dad, a nice tie, my mom would get, a pretty blouse but this year ~ I've been thinkin' . . . I might not even leave my house! ~~~~~~~~~~~ Matthew 2:11 "And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh."
