Dear Santa, Please Define “Good”?
“You better watch out. You better not cry. Better not pout. I’m telling you why. Santa Claus is coming to town. He’s making a list. He’s checking it twice. He’s going to find out who’s naughty or nice. He knows if you’ve been bad or good. So be good for goodness’ sake.”

Peace on Earth and Goodwill Toward All
The reason I worked with The Post Institute (other than our need to understand our four adopted and 27 foster kids), was the realization that Bryan Post offers real-life solutions, not only for parenting but for the world’s problems — real, honest to goodness, yet very difficult to achieve unconditional love!
It seems to me that love as we refer to it day-to-day, doesn’t happen much in our world. Oh, it exists as a symbol and a concept and idea/ideal, but in that, it is more information than experience (I love you — I love you too, Luv ya, etc.). There is a world in between.
I recently heard a man describe an experience he had by saying, “it was like my chest was torn open and I was filled with an indescribable sensation of warmth over my entire body. All I could do was weep.” This was from a university professor.
