Christmas

Christmas is so commercial these days. But this isn't a blog about that. I personally enjoy getting gifts, and love wrapping presents, the Christmas Tree, lights on houses, the food. I love every Christmas tradition practically. What I enjoy more though is the quality time spent with family. But Christmas is definitely not about the gifts.

When did the Christmas wishlist become a list of demands? This year, I never gave anyone a list. If they bought a gift, it was something they felt I would like, and therefore, I appreciate it and cherish the thought even more. It is always better when it is unexpected.

Another thing that bothers me is how Christmas is getting censored these days. Happy Holidays, ugh my Christmas spirit diminishes when I hear that phrase. I am all for being polite, and not offending someone, but if they don't celebrate Christmas, don't ruin it for those who do. Christmas is a Christian holiday. If you are not Christian, you are technically not included. What if I was offended by another religions holiday? What would happen then? So please, check the political correctness and grow some thicker skin. Having Christ in a name of a CHRISTIAN holiday is not an attack on your beliefs, or non-belief.

Now, I have finished my rant on Happy Holidays.

Merry Christmas to All, and have a blessed New Year!
