UNDERSTANDING
- And of the children of Issachar, which were men
|
We had an official email from the big brass stating in no uncertain terms about leaving all religious references out of any decorations. So I put up a little pink tree with candy canes around it. I hung the Twelve Days of Christmas pictures of Anne Gedes Babies from the ceiling and had angels blowing trumpets around and on the tree and other candy under it to draw people. Then I placed a couple kids books on my desk about Christ's birth and Hanukkah. |
People come in a lot anyway and others came in because of the pink tree. It really is cute. So I got to talk to some people about candy cane symbolism and the twelve days having a Christian meaning, but really it was sad. One person just kept glancing at the books while we were working at my desk, but he said nothing. And neither did I, I'm sorry to say. I just couldn't think of anything. Possibly God telling me to keep quiet, or more likely, just me not responding. I'm wondering how long before they say I can't wear my nail cross.
