jla_watchtowerThere is some debate within mystical circles if there is indeed such a creature as the embodiment of Christmas Giving known as Santa Claus. But whether or not there is such a being, the spirit of giving itself is very real, be it incarnated in a fat man in a red suit or not.
Throughout this small blue planet of Earth, people have brought trees into their homes, decorated them with lights and ornaments, and placed them in locations of honor. Stockings have been placed on the chimneys. But most of all -- in the spirit of community and giving -- people have placed gifts under the tree.
Some are looking forward more to the receiving than the giving. But for many, it is the act of giving which warms them, which fills them with the holiday spirit.
Each person, in their own way, becomes a part of this spirit of giving. Each person, in their own way, becomes Santa Claus.

Date: 2006-12-25 06:20 am (UTC)Bruce will receive a large ornate, leather-bound book which, when opened, will reveal an extensive collection of photographs of the Wayne family dating back to the 1840's - in daguerrotypes and copied from glass negatives, some painstakingly restored to their former glory.
The last page is that of Bruce himself.
There are pages left blank for new additions, of course.
