I’ m S O R R Y. . .
There really should have been a warning
before this video aired
ON CHRISTMAS MORNING,
no less. . .
but the thing I like about it
is the bare fact
I am completely
V U L N E R A B L E
absolutely
undeniably
unequivocally
naked
bare-bummed
out in front of everyone
uncovered
OUT THERE. . .
BELIEVE ME
I know that this video
is a not-so-perfect
rendition of Sara Bareilles’
LOVE IS CHRISTMAS;
it’s flat. . .
it’s shot poorly. . .
it’s not just OFF Key,
but off the KEY CHAIN. . .
there’s sound of rain against the house
as-an-unfiltered-
one-shot-unedited-version-background. . .
the Point:
It’s a whole lot like even the Best of Christmas:
P E R F E C T L Y
I M P E R F E C T
L O V E–
The real
warts,
scars
marred
nicked
blemished
and bloodied
is that way, too. . .
THE BOTTOMLINE:
It’s not what’s under the tree
or on the shelf
or coming directly from Amazon Prime
it’s just simply that
LOVE IS. . .
It’s taken me quite some time
but I finally have found out
that LOVE isn’t on
The Calendar
that Love isn’t
a Date or a Day
that Love isn’t
a Season or a particular time. . .
It’s a Lifestyle. . .
It comes to us at Perfectly Imperfect Moments. . .
L I F E T I M E S
can be lived in a single moment. . .
Quit trying to
GET IT RIGHT
and realize that IT
already IS
R I G H T—
a s i s
and when you do that. . .
as Imperfectly Perfect it is
A M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S
happens for AN EVER
and E V E R. . .
and not a bad
NEW YEAR,
either—
no matter what the date or season. . .
