“Merry Christmas!”, I said to the man behind the counter at the gas station.
The man, much darker than my complexion, with a red mark on his forehead, smiles back and me and says, “Yes, Merry Christmas!”
We both feel as if each man holds an appreciation for the other. It is a pleasant and positive exchange.
