Yet, there I found myself, one Christmas night, with an intense feeling of nostalgia once all the guests had departed and my mother had stored the last morsels of the feast, straightened up the house, and finally gotten off her feet. At the time, I was unsure what I was experiencing, but it was palpable. Lonely, yet beautiful; sad, yet full of comfort.
At this point in my life, I have come to think of Bethlehem as that common home for which we each long.At nine, I was hardly surveying the previous years of so short a life. The human mind, I think, can go back much further, to a home, indeed an origin that we discern as if by nature, even if our vocabulary fails us. For the Christian it is that first Christmas – a home for which we each yearn.
