personal Christmas while
gazing up at the stars.

be seen as an expression
of wonderful joy made
manifest in something else.

"As we struggle with shopping lists and invitations,
compounded by December's bad weather, it is good
to be reminded that there are people in our lives who
are worth this aggravation, and people to whom
we are worth the same."

about getting busy to pull 
off a successful Christmas… 
sometimes it can be hard work.

from the day to day strife…

escaping inside of a movie
and losing yourself and your
emotions to the care of another world.

Sometimes it can be about
eating and drinking your fill
of the various rich foods that
the season tends to bring with it.
