27 Nov - Seasons

Seasons... I get it.  I do, however, this constant move to get more and more money from the consumer is just getting to be a bit overwhelming.  I do understand the true reason for the Christmas season and it has nothing to do with buying more and more things for people who have so much more than some will ever get in a long long time.  

Christ is the reason that we celebrate.  He was born during this time period (or at least we like to think so.)  I've seen so many things about buy this - buy that - get your loved one this or that.  I guess that I'm just tired of seeing and hearing more and more about how to celebrate this season through various television ads that it's more than frustrating.

Regardless of whatever religion you belong to; regardless of your faith; why can't we just celebrate the our Savior's birth and enjoy being together to celebrate it? 

That's all...
