My favourite is ticking off my family by not buying in to all the trappings of societal conventions and calling them on it. Serious. Nothing brings me more joy than for them to get mad at me because I refuse to put up a Christmas tree.

"Why won't you?"

"Why does a silly tradition mean so much to you? What is the actual purpose of it?"

"Because it's Christmas!"

"I'm pretty sure Christmas, as the name implies, is about celebrating the Christian understanding that a spiritual Saviour had come into the human domain. What does a fire-hazzard tree in my living room have ANYTHING to do with that original purpose? Don't be a sheep. Be intentional about how you live your life."

Those family members who have figured out which observances they want to participate in and WHY they are significant and purposeful and not just "because that's what you're supposed to do", get to be off the hook from my questioning the next year. That's my present to them. Smiley Wink

The smell of Cinnamon and Eggnog, fragrant chocolate and mint,

White, green and red candy canes, Rich plum,rum-soaked cakes,

Dancing, twinkling lights, family, gifts, pine needles and christmas carols, there may be,

But to make me happy, food is all it takes!

 

Happy holidays.

The best thing about Christmas Day is pretty much everyone knows its Christmas Day. You don't typically run into people who are like, "Oh, was that today? I didn't even know!". People are nicer to each other, strangers smile at strangers, and even the road ragers seem to find a little inner peace, as I often notice people stop and think a more than usual on Christmas Day. No one wants to be the guy/girl losing their temper on someone about something silly and possibly making that person sit in silence for the rest of the day thinking about that moment. You just have to take a deep breath and remember that we all came from the same place and we are all heading in the same direction, and we wouldn't have made it this far if we hadn't been looking out for each other along the way. Christmas is a day to reflect on who you are, but more importantly its a day to remind us all that without our friends and family we would be nothing at all.
