If you have never heard of Scrooge, Tiny Tim, or A Christmas Carol, please be advised that some of the interspersed commentary contains spoilers. ???????I wrote the reflections from my own Christian (Lutheran) perspective, but I hope the reader keeps an open mind and finds them illuminating irrespective of prior religious outlook.
