Christmas Eve - 2006
Today as I scanned the news, I found several items I could post upon, but I decided not to. Why? Because today is Christmas Eve, and that is what we should be concentrating upon, not the stupidity that is going on around us.
Today is the day for the last minute Christmas shopping, traveling to homes of our loved ones to celebrate Christmas with, going to Church to celebrate Christ's birth in a special way and just being with family and friends.
Young children are all excited because Santa Claus will come down the chimney tonight with his bag of goodies and leave presents under the tree for them, and parents will be busy placing those presents under the tree (or if they are like me when my boys were young, spending hours assembling toys, bikes and other assorted gifts that come with instruction made in China).
I feel sorry for those that have to be away from their family this Christmas, especially those that are protecting us here at home, by fighting the War on Terrorism abroad. Those men and women in America's military are giving us the best Christmas present ever, their time away their families and their lives. Thank You!
I also feel sorry for those that don't celebrate Christmas because it is a religious holiday, and I am not talking about the Jews or other religions, I am talking about those that hate religions. They are so filled with spite and hatred that this holiday sends them into a whirlwind of lawsuits, foaming at the mouth diatribes and evil glares. I feel sorry for them because they are missing out on a great celebration, and the chance to give, not just receive.
I just love Christmas, the winter season, the lights and decorations, the beautiful Nativity Scenes, and the Christmas Carols that sings of the wonders of Christ's birth. I love it all, and I pray that others feel the same way as I do.
Merry Christmas Everyone, all my readers, the AoS morons, my commenters, even mudkitty and those that attacked me on the Kwanzaa post. May it be Blessed and Happy and full of Joy. And may the Fruitcake be edible.
