Holidays - December 2006

When I was in the third grade after xmas break the teacher ask each child to stand up in front of the class and tell what they got for xmas. Well you can imagine the list of things these kids had. Mine was pretty good too. But one boy stood up in front of everyone and said " I got a red truck" I have never forgotten that. How can anyone believe that this is a holiday that thier god approves of when so many people are hurting because of it?

there are some dangerous presents out there and sometimes presents that get used in ways that they aren't intended. so, i'm curious...did your present ever backfire and hurt you or someone else??

thanks!

Not an expensive gift, looking for more heartfelt. Who was it from and why did it mean so much?

Anyone who listens to the News what I am talking about.
Thailand is a Buddhist Country, but they are tolerant of the Christians who are here, and even put up lovely Xmas Trees and lights, and all the stores play Carols and the assistants wear Father Xmas hats......
It's quite lovely.

Christmas is just 5 days away. The best thing you can give anyone is Love. It cost nothing but is priceless.
With all the running around, shopping, trying to find a parking space, going here to there, it's easy to forget what this time of year is all about. Close your eyes and remember what it felt like when you were little and the feeling you had as Christmas Day got closer. Try to slow down if you can and enjoy this time with friends and family; make this time about the love, not about some store bought present.

A few years ago i used to get a bus to work, and there was a guy who used to be there every morning. He was in his forties, nice guy, kind of shy - i think he liked having someone to talk to. I never knew his name or where he lived, but we'd chat a little and i knew he lived alone. One day at Christmas I was complaining about the hassle of Christmas shopping and he just said "I'm lucky. I don't have anyone to buy presents for." I thought it was the saddest thing ever and i've never forgotten it. I moved away soon after and never saw him again, but I keep thinking I should have done something for him. What would you have done?

Thanks,
