Penn, thanks for sharing your story.

The best thing about Christmas (to me) isn’t really that we give presents, eat a big meal and celebrate the (hypothetical) birth of Jesus. It’s about the memories associated with the significant period of time that occurs every year because of it.

The best thing about Christmas is remembering those events like they happened yesterday...good, bad, or indifferent, we remember those people and events we shared time with.

Thank you and Merry Christmas!
