Holidays - December 2006

I'd be interested to know if you consider yourself to be a Christian or other faith as well.

T'was the month before Christmas
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand.
See the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas -
No one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say
December 25th is just a "Holiday".
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod S
Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.
As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.
At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears
You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-is-ty
Are words that were used to intimidate me.
Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace.
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree"
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.
Choose your words carefully,
Choose what you say
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS,
Not Happy Holiday!

I love CHRISTmas and celebrate it but it gets me down that people r all concertain about what they r getting or giving and not the real reason for the season. It has goten way to commerical with all the CHRISTmas advertising.

We put on Christmas music, drink eggnog, and all participate in putting the ornaments on. Many of the ornaments have their own stories and we talk about when/where we got them. Do you have a tradition for putting up the tree, or is it just another decoration?

Are the parents sharing the real meaning with their kids or could the parents be too busy buying presents and decorating?

I love giving gifts during Christmas and seeing the looks on people's faces when they get something that's really great. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. So I'm just curious which do you prefer? :)

He and I have been together for over 4 years now, and while we both wish we had more money to spend, we need to limit it. He's really into baseball and working out. While I have some ideas, i'm looking for something to really "Wow!" him. Help!
