It was in many ways a merry Christmas 2011. In sports, Chicago beat LA. Green Bay also won. It was a nice day. Many families were able to spend time together in peace. The end of the year is always great to spend with family and friends, celebrating the joy that is Christmas and ring in the new year. The economy was rough for some people too.
Perhaps, this is a reminder that the commercial aspects of Christmas are economically challenging, but still have the underlying notion that it is better to give than receive. This idea is what makes some people feel like they didn't give a good enough gift, because they feel they didn't give enough. The only advice we have is, to do what you can for good will. Add in the ideas of all the Christmas lights, Santa, the seaonal time of year, the fun and enthusiastic songs (Mitch Miller and Ray Conniff are old favorites), and family mealtime, and we have 100% Christmas Spirit. One of the greatest movies ever made about Christmas was from the book, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. A Christmas Story, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer are also really cool.

The month of December just says Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, and Season's Greating, and Happy Hannukah all over it. Christmas is the biggest, most celebrated holiday the world over. Perhaps this is to be a reminder of the true spirit of Christmas, the desire for peace on earth and good will. Have a holly jolly Christmas. Ok, finally, so what are The Twelve Days of Christmas? These are the twelve days that occur between Christmas Day, December 25, and The Epiphany on January 6.
In a little town called Bethlehem there was the birth of Jesus Christ, and the joy of love, faith, and peace. God rest ye merry gentlemen and tidings of Comfort and Joy. Jesus has fulfilled the promise of Peace on Earth and God is faithful. Celebrate the gift of life, celebrate life. Celebrate peace. Happy Birthday Jesus, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings!
