Christmases Past for you?

Love your family Christmas history and family traditional Alex ... you have a lot of similar feelings about it as I do. My feelings are that Christmas is about celebrating birth and life and humane selfsacrifice and doing unto others in ways that enhance and sustain life ... call it spiritual, religeon, heart, humanity ... its all these things and more to me. I feel its a 365/24-7 thing too but with a one special day we call all acknowledge and celebrate that in each other and in everyone around us ... especially wonderful and fun to share that with family and loved ones



I regret that I have no memories of Christmases with my Dad to enjoy ... he had to be elsewhere, at Christmases of course, but I did receive Christmas gifts from him ... in early childhood, toboggans, sleds, wagons and the like every year GREAT JOY for me to have those gifts and enjoy them for so long ... so he was with me every year in spirit if not in body for the Christmas times, whether I understood and knew that or not, at the time.

I have lots of other memories of all kinds, cifferent Christmas experiences, mostly huge close family gatherings and all. God how I miss those, but am okay and enjoy my Christmases now too, in different ways.

Merry Christmas to you and your awesome family Alex.
