Heading into a long holiday weekend, the commerce amps up and the opportunities to step back and reflect on things that matter become increasingly rare. Steve Duin sets a useful tone for the break in this very readworthy column.

Snip:

…When it comes to the full-court press of the Nordstrom clerks, the metallic howl of the Salvation Army bells, or the tone-deaf quarrel between the ordinary and the uninspired, I am in full retreat.

Maybe it’s a matter of balance. While there’s more resonance in giving than getting at this time of year, the darkest and shortest of days, we all know we’re at the receiving end of something simple and profound. And we are waiting — and listening — for the quiet reminder of what rests at the heart of the reunion.
