This is the best Christmas program ever, for the very reason you’ve pointed out. Of all the so-called Christmas movies, humble cartoon character Linus is the only one to share the real meaning of Christmas. And at the moment he says “fear not”, he drops his security blanket - another detail which is worth noting.
And a wonderful reflection. Despite a thoroughly mainstream upbringing, somehow I missed watching A Charlie Brown Christmas until I was in college. I fell in love with the impeccable soundtrack, and found that it’s also undoubtedly the best Christmas cartoon ever made—now an annual staple in my family.
Cameron, as it turns out, you share a birthday with not only Epiphany and a certain dark day in our nation's history, but also my very particular husband. Happy birthday, and I, for one, enjoyed your theologizing, your quotes, your encouragement to keep the dance going. Glad to know you on your journey.
And by know you, I mean, of course, through your poetry and prose and 20 minutes worth of talking. But your poetry is a pretty great introduction; thank you for all those well-placed words.

Nice job Cameron! And happy birthday!
Happy birthday!!

Thank you! I agree, the soundtrack makes it. It was my son's first movie (at 2.5), and he also loved it. New tradition for sure.
Beautiful. Happy birthday!
Great read! Way to celebrate your birthday!
Excellent!
Thanks, Zane!

Joy, thanks for reading. And please wish your husband a happy birthday for me. Hopefully see you around!

Happy birthday, Cameron! I also turn 33 this year, this very month, albeit a little later.
Well, HBD to us!
