A Story about Christmas
We just read the Edgar Allan Poe story “The Tell Tale Heart,” which appropriately points us toward Ghouls and Ghosts.
Now, let’s have a look at a story that points us toward gift-giving, genuine love, and Christmas.
SENTIMENTALITY
Will there, ever again, be such a thing as “a happy ending”? Is the 21st Century so cynical that an unhappy ending is inexorable? Or is it possible that those of you who have never known a world without cell phones, the internet, and computers can actually BELIEVE IN A HAPPY OUTCOME? What is your personal attitude about “HAPPY ENDINGS”??? Are they possible?
Is a happy ending nothing more than a false hope? Are happy endings always CORNY, unbelievable, and absurd?
