May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases…

Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance - a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved."
So much can be said about Christmas. December 25th is considered as the birth…

Why I No Longer Celebrate Christmas
By David Ben-Arieli
I was blessed to grow up in Risingsun, Ohio next door to my Grandma and Grandpa Hoover on their farm that embraced where we lived, surrounding us with its loving arms on both sides (until the age of 11) and behind, with our woods over yonder a bit, that I loved to walk through as a boy, always looking for my "brother" hawk, circling overhead, to greet me.
Anyway, besides my parents, Grandma and Grandpa Hoover always made sure we had a ric…
