This is the perfect day to launch the “Friday Delight” series. Even though I’m not celebrating Christmas today—writing to you from my residence in Israel—I wish I did!
I love your idyllic concept of America. It was once as you described. As freedoms errode before our eyes, our youth unbothered, so, too, does your vision of Americana. Only God can restore what we once were.
You've come to atheist grounds, Traci, so I will counter your last comment with “Only a rational, systemic philosophy that rejects mysticism, altruism, and collectivism can restore—and improve on—what we once were.”
Merry Christmas! It is very needed to talk about good and positive things always, but especially in tough times. Best weapon against psychological warfare is positivity. I spend Christmas and New Years in Israel 2 years ago, and had an amazing time. Still remember seeing a swimming Santa doing tricks on a surf board at the beach in Tel Aviv. Really made us laugh.

Nice. Hopefully I can enjoy the festivities next year.
