Contrary to popular belief, it was not in winter. Shepherds don't comfortably sleep in the open at night especially in the cold of winter. They were about 2 kilometers East from Bethlehem, just outside of the village of Beit Sahour "Place of the Magi" as some call it. The sky was so clear, every star paled in comparison to that star.

But what if we're not mortal? Or human? We still get gifts, right?

[worthyofhislove]

Creature, do you have the ability to love?

[so_very_greedy]

In the romantic, monogamous, can't-live-without-you way? No.

[worthyofhislove]

Not romantic love, love in all of its well meaning fumbling and folly for the benefit of others and self.

Amen.

Mhm, and the day of the Immaculate Conception happened on the eighth of December.

[worthyofhislove]

Yes, I know Lady. I'm not one to trumpet my own horn as it were.

Have a blessed Christmas.

[alexielobsessed]

Alexiel's birth is cause for celebration.

[worthyofhislove]

Let's not persue this conversation. An agreement is nowhere in sight.

Merry Christmas.

[sister_samurai]

That's... beautifully put. Amen.

[worthyofhislove]

Thank you, sister.

May your Christmas be filled with joy like the first all those years ago.

[sister_samurai]

Thank you. I find myself very blessed this year. I hope the same for you!
