For some reason it feels like your soul is being ripped out through your wallet every year at this time. The blatant consumerism at every turn, the over stocked and over staffed stores, pretending to care, hoping to suck the last of the precious dollars from your pocket. The tv and general media using every tool they have, turning your kids against you, bombarding you with the impression that you must spend and buy for every person you know. I hate the session for this, and I am not alone, many people are depressed at this time of year, and who can blame them with this kind of stuff going on. Despite all of that, every year there is a shining moment, where just for a few minutes, everything seams right in the world, and you wish the moment could last forever. That is usually 5 minutes before your kids declare that they are totally board with the gifts you have spent all your money on. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
