I'm going to get on my soap box for a second so bear with me (or just don't read this entry). It's really bothering me that everywhere you turn you see Christmas being marketed as presents. The pressure to spend everything you have and some of what you don't to make sure Christmas is perfect is crazy! They practically jam it down the our (the consumers) throats! "Get her the perfect gift" or "Get him what he really wants this Christmas". And every year it seems they market it more and more, and more and more people end up getting caught up in it all. Just a reminder that it's not about giving or getting the perfect gift, it's about giving from the heart and being grateful for what you have and those in your life who love and care for you. For me personally it's about God giving us the best gift of all, his only Son. So this season, try to slow down and really meditate on what the spirit of Christmas means to you. Thanks for reading my crazing ranting! Take it for what it's worth. Just my opinion, not meant to offend.
Much love and many blessings to all,
Heather Crosby
