it's christmas

Dec 23, 2009 15:04

once and for all: just because i'm an aetheist doesn't mean that i don't approve of the spirit of what christmas has become. after all, let's face it: very little about the rituals of christmas have anything to do with jesus and much more to do with pagan solstice rituals. so, for crying out loud, put "christ" back into your own arse and let me get on with having a good time with friends, relatives, D and his family, buying presents, getting presents, seeing kids all excited and happy.

okay, having said that, let me go on to say to all of you "happy christmas." this applies to everyone regardless of creed, race, origin, etc. christmas is my way of looking back at the year, counting my friends and fortunes, seeing that i'm very lucky to have you all, acknowledging the setbacks and disappointments, but knowing that moving forward is a matter of mind and not circumstance. and looking back, i want to acknowledge what you all have meant to me this year.

and, really, the easiest way to say that is with the pre-coded salutation that we all understand: happy christmas.

i'm sure i'll see you all here, on FB, or in person. my love.
