Re: Why Is The "Christmas Spirit" So Different?

I sing Christmas songs. They remind me of Jesus' birth and the gift He gave us.
This is the first Christmas in my adult life that I'll have a tree. The tree for me symbolizes life, renewal, and peace, but I never had one before because I didn't want to offend. This year I don't have any friends who'd be offended.
My family searches out gifts for each other-intended to be given at Christmas-throughout the year. So although we give them at this time of year, we consider each other throughout the year as a result of a simple Christmas tradition.
