I guess I see it as a reminder that in my Christian life there's time when my heart can be cold and focused on things that aren't truly important. I hope I'm never so far gone that I need a dirty little boy to ask me for a few dollars to buy some shoes for his dying mother to wear for me to snap out of it and get over having to do some last minute shopping.

That being said, I can only stomach this song one or two times a season.
