I was thinking, it would be nice if, while we are young, before we really start out in life, if Christmas gifts we receive might include wisom and knowledge.
Then we could just start out knowing things.
We couldn't be harmed, because we would know what to watch out for.
Picture a cold night without snow, flocks of geese flying by overhead, with only occasional pairs of headlights cutting through the blackness, because most people aren't out on their usual traffic paths - they're home, or out of town doing out-of-the-ordinary, holiday things.
Suspension of the routine
is part of people's tradition of holidays.
'We usually are doing this. Today is a holiday - we are doing this other thing, instead!'
We couldn't have the Unusual, without the consistent background of The Usual. One allows the other.
