On Christmas morning my family and I went to Yakima to spend the day with my aunt and uncle and grandparents. We had a wonderful time playing cards, eating good food, and enjoying the spirit of the season. It was a Christmas I would have wished for all people worldwide to be able to have. Unfortunately not everyone gets so lucky.
As we were driving back to Moses Lake we noticed a car driving the wrong way down I-90. How does that happen? People were flashing their lights at him, trying to get him to pull to the side and flip a u-turn. He was seriously endangering his own life and the lives of the other drivers. It was terrifying. But we kept driving and passed three police cars flying by the other way. We thought that it was a good sign there weren't any ambulances and hoped that the driver had fixed their mistake. We just had to pray that everything would turn out all right.
Then today I saw this article:

This man, unfortunately, had a cruddy Christmas. Our hearts go out to his family and friends.
That's crazy. What a sad day for so many.
