I can see two sides of this discussion, i posted a similar thread a few weeks back to see just what response i would get if i put it to you all out there that you cut back on the tree, tinsel and pressies.
The majority of answers were against my views on this subject and i was told that it was a coming together of family and friends and not just the whole money making machine that most get caught up in.
There is no way round it, if you have a family who just do not believe the same as you you will get pulled into it anyway.
I made a discision this year no tree and decorations something i have been struggling with for a few years now.
I would only buy for my young grandchild there is no way that you can explain your motives to an 8 year old child.
Then he said to me Nanny why don't you want to put a tree up?
I replied with a pretty pathetic answer to which he looked puzzled i thought i can't do it!
So the tree went up yet again, the pressies are all wrapped and i now await christmas day!!
Take a deep breath Jacqui!!!!!
Get on with it girl put your little act on!
Just one day!!! One day only then GONE!!!!
Phew what a relief that will be, until a unified mass of conscieness things will not change i'm afraid.
I will not be happy on christmas day sorry to upset those who do enjoy the festive season but my heart will be heavy because i can see the lie you see and all those sucked in yet again will go about their petty lives on the treadmill of life and continue to do their masters work.
The one day which will engulf most and who's energies will be drawn to feed entities which only use us for slaves will be spent by myself with a tear in my eye and a wish in my heart that times will soon change, i look forward to that day with every hour that passes.
But i will wish everyone love and say while you are enjoying yourselves just take time out and think of those who will be alone at christmas, the homeless the old and those who for no fault of there own are caught in wars, poverty famine and disease.
