3901 with Today and Tomorrow till Month Ends

Sadly since posting this on the 24th, for Christmas Eve, there have been four more confirmed Deaths of American Military Personal in Iraq!

But I will with a heavy heart!

HONORING THE FALLEN: US Military KIA, Iraq – December 2007

This isn’t a few days past the end of the month, as we all know. The coming day is the Holiday that seems to have run amuck, no longer celebrating the birth of Christ, even for Christians, except in words only and going through the motions.

It’s become more of a grab fest of materialistic riches and buying frency starting with Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, which somehow also has lost it’s meaning, from the wew morning hours right through the evening hours of the Eve. And now, with the political primaries so close, for the coming elections, a Spirit of anything but The Birth and Teachings of Christ has developed, while his name is bandied about by those seeking political office!

But one thing has stayed consistant these last few years, because of a failure of our Countries Policies and it’s Arrogance, wether Christmas is celebrated or not, there will be tens of thousands of Empty Chairs at the dinner tables, and family gatherings, on the Eve of and on the Day of ‘The Birth of Christ’, a savior to some, a prophet to some, or non-existant to others!
