From: Mrrzy And enjoy celebrating the solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whatever you like with your friends and families! Or not! I like to celebrate being the only species known to know that spring will come again, even on the darkest day of winter, and to understand that since that *was* the darkest day, they get brighter for a while now! And we give and receive a LOT of presents on Christmas... Love, -Mrr |

The end of the Western calendar year and several religious holidays allow people of all persuasions to mark a new beginning and to reflect on what is important to them. Because I spent my first 20 years or so as part of the basic Christian tradition, I have retained great affection for many aspects of the spirit of the season, even as I gradually grew away from specific beliefs. This is a time for pausing and reflecting..... and hoping that peace & understanding WILL grow, no matter our differences. Best wishes to all. |
