feelin’ grinchy? … ’tis the season…

You know, I can’t get into the holiday spirit without watching The Grinch… he is truly one of my favourite characters. He’s cranky, smelly and rude and I can’t help but love him, meanness and all!
There is one scene in the movie that always stood out for me, and really hit home again watching it the other night. The Grinch is standing on top of that cold, frozen mountain with the phone book. And he starts yelling at the little town below, one name at a time “I hate you”, “Hate, Hate, Hate!” , “Loathe and Despise!!”.
I think the reason it stands out so much is because we all have had a moment like that in our lives, where we feel so overwhelmed by our history, all the events and people who have hurt us and it still hurts.
