Christmas Memories
|
Christmas Memories I just returned home from going to a Christmas Eve mass service. It was lovely; the bell ringing chimes, the poinsettia red and white flowers decorating the chapel and of course the message about what Christmas is really about. It all touches my heart. As I listened and reflected, it brought back a lot of good memories growing up in the late 50's and 60's. It was a time of innocence and such anticipation at Christmas. We always had a sock of our own (from our underwear drawer) hung for Santa to fill. It usually had an orange, an apple, some walnuts and that ribbon hard candy in peppermint and wintergreen flavors. Now you only see the expensive stuff for stockings that you buy....electronics, gift cards worth hundreds of dollars etc. The news shows people at the malls spending so much money on gifts, Fighting for a parking place and trying to get through maddening crowds. My heart just breaks at the thought of how this time of year is so commercialized now and about the almighty dollar. There is no bargain ever, anywhere that will get me out there now or on the day after Christmas. It has lost it's meaning for sure. Anyway, no matter how you choose to celebrate I hope you also remember to be kind to one another. Kindness and sharing love should be done not only at the holidays but all year long. It doesn't cost anything and makes the world so much better. Merry Christmas to all - and may 2017 be a great time for everyone even with the challenges we face here in our U S government. God help us all with that. {=} {=} KCClaire0923 P.S. I miss you and am drinking a glass of wine, looking at the tree and lights by myself wishing you were here with me. God bless you and keep you safe. XOXO |
