I hate Christmas schmaltz, Christian or non-Christian.
It’s gooey and genuinely sickly.
But you do get the occasional story which is very moving.
I was reading earlier this month of a 7 year old boy who had written a Christmas card to his dad in Heaven.
I’m sure that there are some in JC with a mentality akin to the Death’s Head battalion of the SS who would snort with contempt at that, but I find it moving.
The Post Office sent a letter back to the boy, saying that after a long journey and after overcoming many obstacles, the letter had been delivered safely.
The mother said she couldn’t describe how happy her son was.
Anyone else with genuinely touching tales?
