I love Christmas, but it stretches me to my limits.
With Christmas comes family members of Christmas. In this case, Chritmas's ugly cousin Chaos.
You can't just have Christmas alone. Nopers. The butt-ugly cousin has to wiggle in and make it's lame attempts at destroying your sanity. Ugly cousin Chaos often reminds me of that old caroon Pinky and the Brain. Each night Brain would conspire with Pinky to destroy the world (they happen to be lab rodents). Pinky would often be sucked into Brain's crazed plots, but the good thing was that they never succeeded. Pinky and Brain would somehow end where they had begun: within the confines of their lab cage.
This gives me hope with Christmas and Chaos (if you can simply compare the scenario to a cartoon). But, nonetheless, today, Christmas Eve, is when Chaos tries its hardest to spoil the mood.
Chaos often works through members of one's own family. I will not go into specifics with this ... it's way too complicated and you don't want to hear it. But the important thing for us to remember is that despite Chaos's ugly face, we can take it for what it is, or give in and raise the white flag.
Alreay this morning, I felt like raising the white flag, but I didn't ... it's Christmas Eve, and I'm determined to finish the day strong. I encourage everyone to do the same. Stand your ground, and shut the door on Chaos before it gets the better of you.
Keep fighting the good fight!
Merry Christmas Eve.
