"Are you looking forward to Santa coming?" the girl in the supermarket asked me.
"Well I don't actually believe in Santa" I whispered, not wanting to be a spoilport.
"What? You don't believe in Santa?"
"No" I explained, "I believe in Jesus. That's what Christmas is all about really."
To my amazement, her tone changed and she said more truthfully, " Actually you're right. I agree with you there."
I wonder how many people hide behind popular mythology and why they are so afraid of the truth. Jesus came to bring joy and peace. Why would anyone want to hide from that?
