In the aftermath of #Election2016, even the words "Happy Holidays," "Merry Christmas," & "Season's Greetings" have a resounding resonance of political correctness (or not). Yet I find it fascinating how the "holiday planets" are "aligning" this year:
- Winter Solstice is December 21st
- Christmas is December 25th
- Hanukkah begins at sundown on December 24 and goes until January 1st
- Kwanzaa's 7 nights begins December 26th to January 1st
- New Year's Eve/New Year's is December 31st/January 1st
For me, Christmas (which is the holiday my family and I celebrate) is a season, a frame of mind, an optimism... not a definitive day. It's about who you are with, and the love in your heart. Let's make the holidays more about that, and less about politics!
Here's wishing you an amazing holiday, no matter what holiday you and your family celebrate.
