An interesting question

Yesterday while waiting to find out why the check engine light keeps coming on in my car, my mechanic asked me, "Are you ready for Christmas?" I said, "It's just my son and me so I guess so.The rest of my family, with the exception of my oldest grandson, no longer speak to me.

I was actually asking myself what is there to get ready for this year?

Will the pandemic be over, will the stores and restaurants be open, will I get a ton of Christmas cards in the mail, will my family remember that I am still alive? No, none of these things are likely to happen. 

To make up for a big NO, I have used the last few weeks to do little things for others. It has actually been fun. Not having a lot of money, it was a challenge to figure out what I could do to brighten the life of another. I think I did a pretty good job.

Last night as I looked out my front window I saw a beautiful sight in the sky. I hurried to get my camera before the image was no longer visible. Along with a fantastic sunset I saw a bright cross in the lower part of the scene. As the day has gone on I know I am supposed to share it with others. This is what I saw.
