We have a wee living tree inside the house and have put little ornaments and lights on it! I enjoy the slightly surreal aspect of that particular ritual. I'm going to plant it in the garden afterwards and I hope the roots won't have been too damaged for it to grow. It's a blue spruce. I hope you're all happy and cosy whatever it is that you do at this time of year. I'm not really fussed about Christmas, it doesn't mean anything to me but I'm happy enough to have a nice dinner with my family and give them presents despite the silly consumer aspect of this period and the irrelevance of religion! Peace and love to all of you and thanks for everything :-) x

Christmas is about family. I think you already have it right. Merry Christmas!

the silly consumerism and irrevelent religion has indeed turned me almost completely away from the holiday spirit. oddly enough, i still really love christmas music. now i'm off to hang up some christmas lights!

That's how Christmas should be. The poor tree my parents got is losing all of the needles at an alarming pace.

i was thinking about your tree ritual, amid mixed feelings about the relevance of the holiday. i think it's a trend in collective thought... happy holiday!

I wish you the best of the season, dear AnnaLee, and a happy 2012, although I suspect I will be dropping by (figuratively of course) from time to time.

Religion is relevant to those who make it so, for themselves if no one else. I daresay it is the lifeline of some.

Be well.
