A real celebration of Christmas!
This year as my children are already knee deep in toys etc. I have decided to give only a few presents, to symbolise the act of Christ’s charity. For me Christmas is a festival that has been celebrated for millennia as the winter solstice – I will celebrate it as both this and in reverence of Christ – Christ-mass. I want to celebrate it as a union of people, I will go out with my children and at times without, simply to enjoy the spirit of it [I hope it is still there] and the feast! So I am sorry yon capitalists, I will not partake of your debauchery this time or next!
My daughter bronwyn is playing Mary in this years school play, even though I am a druid I think Christmas can be a universal celebration. I find more joy in the way we celebrate it than the stark commercialism we are driven towards!
What do you think?
Can anyone of any religion celebrate it? I am sure most cultures have some kind of winter solstice!
