Merry Christmas, Merry “Not” Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, or just family celebration time to all. The holidays have always been my favorite time of year. It seemed like everyone was nice, snow covered neighborhoods were a given, and the smell of hot chocolate just lived in the air or at least thats what it felt like as a kid. I have to say the magic of christmas has fizzled out for me. Especially since I barely have enough money to pay bills, let alone buy everyone gifts. I decided to focus on enjoying the magic of Christmas this year and not give in to buying useless gifts that will fade into the background as the new year comes. I hope all of you can remember this time isn’t just about rampant consumerism but just about enjoying yourself and those you love.
