The Christmas and the Holiday season is always a special
time of year for Christians as well as
non-Christians.
There has been much
controversy over whether retail stores, schools, and other
organizations should ban the use of Merry Christmas but I
sincerely hope that does not happen.
Not that I am against
Christmas remaining a holiday theme for all to enjoy but my
question is; If we are not celebrating Christmas and the
birth of Christ, then what holiday are we
celebrating?
No matter what your views or how
you feel, I hope you and your family have a very Merry
Christmas and enjoy these gift and decorating ideas

There are many great
things about the holidays, and for me, one of the best is
the Christmas music that my mom would get out, dust off, and
play during the weeks leading up to the 25th of December. If
she wasn’t playing music, she was singing on her own.
This always made the holidays a bit more exciting, and is

Christmas Is That Time Of Year ...
It is that time of year when you walk
outside, the air smells crisp and the skies are a little
gray. Jack Frost has touched the window panes with his magic
fingers and the ice scraper needs to come out of the glove
box in order to scrape off the front car window.
Street lights take on a new aura as
their red and green lights blink on and off. You begin to
drive down the side streets on your way home to see who has
the best light show on their lawn, and the children have
sent their wish lists off to Santa. If you haven’t
guessed what time of year it is, it is Christmas
time.
What Does This Holiday
Represent?
Christmas itself represents a Holiday
season that has taken on countless meanings all over this
diverse country of ours; from snow covered hills to pink
lights on palm trees, nativity scenes, Ebenezer Scrooge and
The Grinch to peppermint pigs, all hold a special place when
we reminisce. Some of us might hop on a plane and travel
across the country during the holidays, while others of us
may simply visit the neighbors across the street.
No matter what our Christmas
traditions are, there is one very strong connection that we
all share. Recent events in our country’s history
remind us all of this connection and continue to strengthen
that bond every day. This time of year we gather together
with friends and family.
The True Meaning Of Christmas
As we gather, some of us may celebrate
the birth of Christ, some of us may light candles on a
Menorah, some of us may simply unwrap gifts with glee
without a second thought. Yet there is no doubt, no
question, that we all gather to celebrate each
other.
The Holidays Are A Time For Family
We gather to celebrate life, and
family, and those we love. We gather to enjoy good food,
good conversation and good company. We reminisce about past
holidays, remember those we love who are no longer with us,
and plan for the future.
Don't let the question of how to put
lights on a Christmasy tree or what themes you are going to
add to your decorating ideas stress you out this
year.
Do simple things... Our family shares
photos of holidays past, we share gifts, and we share
laughs. At Christmas time we look for the innocent sparkle
in our children’s eyes as we help them to create their
own memories, and tuck them soundly into bed with a smile on
their faces as ‘visions of sugar plums dance in their
heads’.
Christmas Shows No Age Limits
No matter our age, our race, or our
nationality; No matter our heritage, our upbringing, or our
traditions; At Christmas time, we live, we laugh, and we
love.
Have A Very Merry Christmas and
A Happy New Year!!!!!
