Selfish Celebration

Can we all celebrate the birth of Christ without depriving someone, somewhere in the world from food, shelter or electricity?

Have a happy and "Just" Christmas.

good reflections! in fact for any celebrations can we do it? or each time we eat do we remember?
may you be the change you want to see in the world as Gandhi once said!
Blessed Christmas to you and your loved ones!

Christmas spirit now is almost entirely a product of marketing and sales promotion. On the other hand, where there is no "natural holiday" like Christmas, the marketers and hucksters just create them to sell their wares --Mother's Day and Father's day, for instance, are entirely commercial creations set in traditionally slack sales periods. Still, we don't have to play their games, and I continue to find the month of December one of the most enchanting times of the year.

I guess we all need reminding of what we have. Thanks and hope you're having a good week.
