Christmas EveChris StevensEpisode 3.10, "Seoul Mates""I," said the cow, all white and red, It's an old legend that on Christmas Eve at midnight, all the animals fall to their knees and speak, praising the newborn Jesus. Back in the winter of sixty-nine, my Dad was serrving a short time for a DUI and I don’t know where my mom was. Anyway, I was home alone Christmas Eve and I stayed up extra kinda late to see if my dog, Buddy, would talk. And he did. I don't remember his exact words, but that's not important. What matters is that a seven-year-old boy experienced his own personal epiphany. What’s my point? Well, it's that Christmas reveals itself to us each in a personal way, be it secular or sacred. Whatever Christmas is--and it's many things to many people--we all own a piece of it. It’s like, well, it’s kinda like Santa's Bag: inside, there's a gift for everyone. My Christmas wish for you tonight? May your dog talk. Good night, Cicely. Merry Christmas.
