The pandemic of the decade is not COVID-19. It is double-mindedness. Our nation has become a society of people who can cross their fingers behind their backs and tell bold-faced lies for political expediency, and then in another setting deny they made the comment if it is problematic to their careers.

I don’t know about you, but I am getting fed up with the political war that never ends. I am not referring to the endless foreign wars where brave soldiers give their lives to keep a commitment to America.

It was one of those rowdy conversations parents have with teenagers. You explain the perils of life in graphic detail, and they just don’t get the picture.

In the darkness of the COVID-19 pandemic, I am not sure how the feeble old man of 2020 staggered out and the chubby new babe of 2021 bounced into our lives.

The glitter of Christmas shines in the windows, glistens on the snow, wafts through the airwaves in the sentimental sounds of holiday cheer.

Christmas lights twinkle along sidewalks and glitter in store windows. “Jingle Bells,” “White Christmas” and “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” jingle and jangle amid the din of shoppers darting from display to display searching for the perfect gift before they rush home with their treasures.
