What is it about Christmas? I haven’t always had the cheeriest Christmases and I’m sure I will be having a big ole’ lump of coal Christmas this year, but Christmas doesn’t get me down- even if its not perfect. (New Year’s is a different story.)
I just love everything to do with Christmas. I love Christmases with snow, and I love warm desert Christmases.
I love the music, probably because I have a strict no-listening-to Christmas-music-until-after-Thanksgiving policy. Plus, I just love music and so many talented musicians have used their skills in service of Christmas. or Hanukkah, or Solstice. I’m open to any winter time Celebrations!!
I love the lights, I love the feeling of merriment, and planning for other people’s happiness and delight. I love Christmas parties and getting together with friends. I love cheesy gifts and bad gifts and those rare, thoughtful good gifts. I love surprises that you know are going to come. I love decorating for Christmas.
I think, basically, that I’m pretty much a big fan of peace on earth and goodwill to all. And parties! Yep, that’s it in a nutshell. And music that captures that and reminds me of all of the ambiance surrounding Christmas time is a welcome guest every year.
Here is a cheery song that I post lasted year.
We Wish You a Merry Christmas by John Denver and the Muppets
