And perhaps not only know that you celebrate, but also remember why...
Yes, if you are Christian, remember that the holiday celebrates Jesus, who spent most of his life owning little more than a robe and a pair of sandals. Make the gifts you give special, not merely expensive, and take the opportunity to help others who need it
If, like me, you aren\'t Christian but celebrate Christmas anyway, think of it this way. Jesus was a kind, gentle, compassionate man in a time of cruelty, aggression and intolerance. Celebrate with kindness and compassion, love your loved ones and take the opportunity to give something to those less fortunate.
Yes, that\'s my \"epiphany\" this year. Me and mine are doing fine. Many others are not.
