Jazzy...please, re-read your post...I can't believe you just said that...
They should do away with the COMMERCIALIZATION of Christmas...is that what you meant?
I personally LOVE Christmas!!! Not only for the real reason, to celebrate the birth of Jesus, which I DO CELEBRATE!!!, but also 'cause deep down inside I'm still a little girl that loves all the preparations, the food, the gatherings of friends and family, etc.
The presents we have long got rid of, now it's only for the little kids in the family, which right now is only 2, my "niece" and my nephew...So, there you go...
The pastor at my church once said..."When you buy people presents, you put them in the awkward position of having to buy you a present also, so...do everyone a big favor and don't buy anything for anybody...only the little children"
If everybody would follow this, then we could go back to celebrating the real reason for the season...
Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year 2003 to everyone!
