All the excitement of christmas has gone because you know santa is not real, it feels the same when you discover it's not the fairies that take your tooth from under the pillow.

but just cant wait to chrissie!

What a depressing thought :D
My happiness for Christmas faded when our children left the nest. However, it returned when the grandchildren came along. We have great family time together with children and grandchildren. By putting "Christ" back into Christmas and attending church services with family, I truly find happiness at Christ-mas time.

You don't feel it is just commercial mass-marketed trash then?

Yes, I did until I enjoyed time with family and remembering the true spirit of Christmas. I just don't pay attention to the commerial mass-marketed trash.

Maybe.
But the Christians hijacked it first (http://paganwiccan.about.com/cs/aboutyule/a/paganxmas.htm). Lookie here (http://www.candledark.net/silver/yule.html) too.
A Happy Yuletide til ye all. :)

:):) They have to be the poorest presentations of websites ever imagined :)
Can you explain the *true* spirit of Christ-mass?I think it may be Old Pulteney. Or Old Nick. Or maybe just old-fashioned.
Oh yeah, and those website "designs" are awful, they're a dreadful example of content over style. Well, the second one anyway. A bit like yours really. ;)

It's the remembrance of my youth so long ago when my mother read me stories of the first Christmas plus the times when I passed that on to my own children. And now I have the opportunity to spend memorable moments with my grandchildren. At 80 years of age I try to look for the good positive things in my life. It can be a joy. Perhaps you never experienced those moments.

Not in my life time, but I will back off :)

Thank you, but no one ever told me that I should use the term "Yuletide."
I guess I'm still living in the past enjoying my younger years.
Maybe.

Ol' Stripey has a nice ring to it but Scrooge Tigger is best :P
After all, I walked in to the Co-op at Thurso an' had to leave due to the staff being made to dress as santas. Is not the minimum wage degrading enuff?
What do you mean about the minimum wage? are you impling that these santas were doing scab labour?
peace on earth and good will to man

Yeah maybe but the only thing is i havent got chirstmas songs lol.
Even on christmas day i feel like it's not christmas, but in a way i know it is as we wake up and has all the presents to open.
Why does christmas not feel real even on christmas day though lol.
Maybe this year it might feel better has i know it might be the last year i spend with my family on christmas.As am moving away.
everyone goes thru those stages hun
try not to let it get you too down
have you bought any thing yet?
it really is better to give than recive.. i love buying pressies or even making them.. just cause i know that it will make someone else feel better. *huge hugs* hope you feel more into it soon! and dont worry if you dont its perfectly natural..
Thank you, but no one ever told me that I should use the term "Yuletide."

No, not at all. Yuletide is the original midwinter festival, it predates the christian version of Christmas. You are the modern one. Go read those sites I posted links to on the first page.
Ol' Stripey has a nice ring to it but Scrooge Tigger is best :POk, you caught me on the bounce, so I've granted your wish.
Thanks for the web site Crayola.Very interesting.
Glad to be of service. Yer no such a bad ol' crustacean efter all.
