Santa and your presentation to your children

The Spirit of Christmas

Some take part in the holiday for the religious, some for the fun.

Both can be accepted or not..

My feeling of this holiday has come through many different thoughts over the years. Some acquired by just the fun of it with my family as a little girl. Which was the fondest of memories.

Then thoughts were molded by others as I got older into a different concept. Some to the religious belief and some to the you are not to do this belief. It is a blasphemy to participate in it.

All and all the choices now are seen very clearly by yours truly..

As I see it …. My life is my decision, my choices. I need not follow anyone else but know for myself what is right and joyful.

So your decision your joy your experience to take part in or not.

The little ones are curious and see the twinkly lights, the happy music that some of you groan at.

Don’t take their joy from them. Let them see feel and hear the joy and laughter..

That is the “Spirit of Christmas” a comfy man with a white beard that brings gift to all..Having magical deer that fly him all over the world to make them happy.. What is wrong with this dream..Don’t take the fun out of life for the little ones. They will carry the joy of this time with them through their adult life and give it to their grandchildren.

So does and old gent come into your home when you’re sleeping … this would be a scary thought in this day and age..

I say Santa is the spirit or magic of Christmas bringing laughter and joy to as many as would belief in laughter and joy. Not of just an innumerable pile of toys or gifts but to see family and fun is the spirit of Christmas. Time together and sharing the fun of life is the spirit of Christmas.

 A happy jolly man makes us see life through a different point of view..

He causes you to “Believe in the magic “  is what he does..

Gifts are to give laughter and joy is what he does..Gifts of the heart not of the wallet.

So who is Santa? He is the magic of Christmas.. The magic of laughter.

The magic of home and family….

 

 

I wish for all a joyful holiday season and may the laughter echo throughout your entire year….not just one day..  DBLorgan
