Christmas is such a thoughtful kind of day for me.  It’s a lifetime of layered experiences – so many strong memories over such a long period.  So much resonance.  It’s one of those days where a movie director might be able to teach us how to make sense of these simultaneous overlaps.  Last night I was watching a little bit of the movie Chicago, and the constant cuts back and forth between real and fantasy are a nice mutually-reinforcing tension builder.  It’s like that, only with multiple cuts.

Let me try to untangle that in a little bit.  Gotta go.
