The Spirit of the Season

You know, I really don't see what the big fuss is about.  If I wish you---or a total stranger, as I like to do---Merry Christmas it's done in the spirit of general goodwill and love, whether or not I know your religion, and I'll be delighted if you wish me back a Happy Kwanzaa, or Happy Hanukka, or even Happy Holidays.  I may even learn something.  One thing I try never to do is assume that my way is the only way.  And who of us is so overburdened by love from our fellow men---or women---that we can afford to reject it just because it's not couched in our favorite terms?
