I do enjoy learning of diverse ways to celebrate existence.

I look forward to the day when life is celebrated moment to moment and not only on "holy days" or "holidays."

In them is taught a subtle form of lack and separation that I sense takes away from our personal relationship with the Creator and breeds separation.

I wonder if we could teach the festivals and holidays as celebrations of the unique faces of a Universal Creator and not as a form of division?

I know that Christmas was a social and emotional challenge for me through the years of my youth and my adulthood.

Today I keep small symbols of Christmas out year-round to remind me that I want that spirit of fun to be in my life continually.

Thank you for sharing your insights on this beautiful celebration.
