1914 Santa Claus in japan (Photo credit: Wikipedia) |
I am not a Catholic so I don't get to confess my sins and even though I say I am sorry a lot, it seems that I alway feel at odds with the world. It is not easy being me.
So...when I saw this sign in the front window of a small rv in my park I knew that I had finally found a solution. Santa could help. The sign said:
Dear Santa,
I can explain...
Love, _________________There you have it. I will send a simple letter to Santa, try to explain why I did what I did and hope. I can trust Santa and I know he is a good guy so he will probably forgive my mistakes. If there is a gift in my stocking, I will know that I am golden for one more year.
Have a wonderful day.

I know exactly what you mean, and I'm not Catholic either. I'm a secular Jew. So I won't be writing any letters to Santa this X-Mass. But I'll continue to do the best I can, despite all the mistakes I know I'll make.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by Roz...isn't it a wonderful world when we think that doing the best we can is enough. Have a wonderful holiday season.
DeleteRaised Baptist and guilty of things I had nothing to do with.
ReplyDeleteYears ago, the police told me to pull over and wait for them. Which I did. When they didn't show, I thought maybe they meant around the corner, so I moved and waited, then repeated this charade. My then husband asked why I didn't just go to the station and turn myself in for failure to come to a complete stop.
Well, Jane, being guilty is one thing but going to the police station. I am not THAT guilty and I am sure you aren't either. :)
DeleteHave a wonderful Christmas Season.
Oh, that is tooooo funny! Sad part is that I can so relate. I am either feeling guilty or worrying. But, as I have aged I have come to realize that is just the way I am made and have learned to laugh at myself....and if someone says Sorry....I look around as I assume that is my middle name...LOL!
ReplyDeleteWe answer to "Sorry", "Will someone get me the toilet paper" and "Hey you". I have no middle name and that may be a good thing. :)
