Christmas is the Christian designation for the older/ancient pagan celebration of the Winter Solstice. The day when we on the planet Earth begin the shift back toward a more northen exposure to direct sunlight. The days begin to grow longer again.
Early Christians cottoned on to the popularity of the pagan (in this case Roman-yep, Zeus/Jupiter and all those fun Gods) celebrations at this time of year, and on to the importance for folks of a midwinter holiday to keep spirits up in hard times, and they co-opted the holiday and called it Jesus' birthday. No one can be sure when Jesus was actually born, and this date was already a party- so hey, now it's Jesus' party.
To me, Xmas is a time of year for enjoying cold weather both by being out in it (skiing, for example) and by sheltering from it (inside with a warm drink).It is a time to appreciate and think about all the Good Things in your life, and to reflect those Good Things by giving presents, if you can.
It is a time for Family, which is the most important thing of all.
I love you, Bub.
thanks papa!
love you too
