Neighbors give an unwanted surprise

” I couldn’t help myself from writing this. Your Christmas lights display made me notice and think of one thing. The whole idea of twinkling colorful beams is a reminder that there are plenty of divisions in society. It is a reminder that there are systemic biases against our own neighbors. And that’s because they don’t celebrate Christmas. Also, it’s for those who can’t even afford to put lights of their own.’

’ Wow, how’s that for bold and in your face? Needless to say, Kim was in a state of shock. This was the last thing anyone could possibly want to hear, during the holiday time.
