"Tis the season

Well Christmas is well and truly upon us...it is so easy at this time of the year to get caught up in the whole commercial aspect of Xmas and forget why it is celebrated.
I for one always get sucked into the "silly season"..Go absolutely crazy.. and clean the house from back to front..buy more presents than really needed and stress then if i got "right one" for that particular person!!!And just when i think i have had enough and ready I'm to explode, i will have a moment of clarity........... it's about being with your loved ones..and giving without a thought of receiving.
A time to celebrate and drink,eat and be merry.It's about seeing children's faces on Christmas eve..anticipating Santa ..and the Magic in the air that he brings. And that's when i ponder the true meaning of Christmas..unobserved and delighting in every ones faces lit with joy and love..Talking, joking,laughing and just being in the moment together,to me that's Christmas.

Have a Safe and Blessed Christmas and New year.
