Once again
we find ourselves enmeshed in the Holiday Season,
that very special time of year
when we join with our loved ones
in sharing centuries-old traditions
such as trying to find a parking space at the mall.
We traditionally do this in my family
by driving around the parking lot
until we see a shopper emerge from the mall,
then we follow her,
in very much the same spirit
as the Three Wise Men,
who 2,000 years ago followed a star,
week after week,
until it led them to a parking space.
