As the temperature is changing we tend to stay indoors more than normal. It can be a good time to reconnect with your loved ones. For some this can be a blessing and for others it can be a curse. A lot has to do with the energies in your home and around people.

It’s a sad fact but there are people in this world who don’t believe in Father Christmas. I know. I feel sorry for them, too.

A star attraction on the stage of the Indian festival is Diwali – a celebration that, speaking generally terms, celebrates the triumph of excellent over evil. The name of the festival is roughly into ‘row of lamps/lights, therefore Diwali is widely known as the festival of Lights. It takes distance over a period of five days on auspicious dates during the Ashvin / Kartika starting – the months of the Hindu lunar calendar that equate to the months of the Gregorian calendar of October / November.

In first grade, our teacher asked us to pen a letter to Santa for Christmas. She asked us, “Name one present you would like Santa to bring you for Christmas.” Then we were to write a letter to Santa, who, according to her, lived at the North Pole, and tell him what we wanted for Christmas and why we wanted it. Then, we put it in an envelope and she mailed it to the North Pole. At the time, I thought my teacher had a connection with Santa Claus. She said so many nice things about him that she must have known him personally. Accordingly, I thought a letter delivered to him by my teacher would have credit.

I never have to look at the calendar to know when the Christmas holiday season is approaching. As soon as I lay down my fork on Thanksgiving Day, the battle drums begin to roll. Somebody, who apparently does not have much of a life, takes a pot shot at the Christmas holiday. You would think, from some of their comments, the Christmas holiday was the greatest conspiracy in all of human history. According to these protesters, the very word “Christmas,” offends them to no degree. They forbid people to say cheerfully, “Merry Christmas,” as if those words in and of themselves would create the ultimate damage to the person hearing them. To placate these values-challenged patrons, some businesses have chosen not to put the word “Christmas,” anywhere near their business, replacing that offensive word with the words, “Happy Holiday.” Even employees are prohibited wishing customers a Merry Christmas, but rather a “Happy Holiday.” This, according to the all-wise Christmas Grinch, is more acceptable than simply saying, “Merry Christmas.”
