Spiritual Holiday Traditions

[Whitefeather]

For me, Christmas is about the preparation... preparing one's heart as well as small tokens of affections for our loved ones. It is always very simple and loving, sharing happy time and, no TV since we do not have a tv set in the house. We may watch a couple of DVDs though. There is Christmas and there is New Year. So, it all starts a few days before and goes on until the beginning of January. There are candles, carols, fun and I usually make some chocolates (organic ones). The wild life which will be coming to our garden will get their fair share of food, butter (for birds) and water. The orange tree in its planter is often carried into the house for decoration and, we feel it is sharing the peace of spirit with us. Also, there are plenty of phone calls and e-mails to far away loved ones.
Happy Christmas to you all
