With Christmas just around the corner do we ever consider what we would truly wish for Christmas? The media hound us with messages telling us to buy, buy, and buy. But all this fills is others pockets and leaves us with a bitter taste in our mouth when the credit card bill comes round again. Have we been so seduced by advertising that we have forgotten that simple things in life are always the best?
Christmas is the festive season of goodwill to all, a time when we decorate the tree creating a little magic within each home a time of wonder and grandeur however humble. Christmas dinner with friends and family, enjoying sharing a feast of food and each other’s company, a time of good cheer.
It's time to cut the strings that pull us further from the things that matter in life and see the reality of how our lives have become and say what more do we need at this spiritual time of celebration than each other.

I wish for peace, and time to stop. Attempts to escape the whole Christmas rush. I wish you time and rest to travel to other worlds.
No material gifts because I can not give.
Of course, I am pleased with something useful, and particularly on small dishes.
love

It's a bit early for Christmas isn't it?
Hi there Rosi nice to hear from you again I hope things are going well for you at the moment. Thanks for the comment about xmas post I just hope there will be a change in the way that we have come to view this time of year as I feel the media put an awful lot of stress on us to comply with a commercial xmas ideal.xxx
