I used to like.. even Love Christmas.. Although not a religeous holiday, it is often observed as such. Many years of festive enjoyment, family gathering, food and football! what happened? I now feel it is a context to see who can give the best gift? or whos house can you see from outerspace? I must say I have definitly lost the "Christmas Spirit" I am married and have kids (who of course love Christmas) but the only thing on their mind is "Will I get what I asked for?" The $100 iPod? the $600 HiFi etc.. Whats wrong with tithings of goodness? and a nice card? Why is it you are not supposed to see the bottom half of your 17 foot tall Christmas tree? Why do I need a tie fashioned as a fish that lights up only to sing "We wish you a Merry Christmas"? To me Christmas has become nothing more than a production, a huge commercial for over-extended consumers buying into the whole "Christmas Hype" How does one bring back the Wholesome Spirit of Christmas?
