Stream of Consciousness: Christmas

I’ll be home for Christmas. Such a beautiful song. Christmas is my favorite season. I love the smell of Christmas ~ with cookies fresh from the oven, mistletoe and evergreen. Even cities seem to like Christmas. Blinking lights and happy faces can be seen walking down the streets, stores play music which reminds people of their childhood ~ and the cold weather?! It seems to be eternally connected to Christmas. It’s acceptable in this season because it helps to transmit the feeling of coziness. It blushes your cheeks, makes people snuggle up to each other, draws people closer together. Even tea and hot cocoa and Glühwein taste tons better during this cold time of the year. And the candles… Can’t forget the candles. They help to make Christmas memorable. Such a warm light that warms your heart. Red candles are the prettiest at this time. Red and green are such beautiful Christmas colors. They harmonize so well together. Combine red with white and you’ll get yummy candy canes. So pretty and so tasteful. ~ But their meaning so sad… Red the color of Jesus’ blood. A reminder of the Holy Child which suffered so much. Christmas is the time the Savior was born. Born to save us. All people. So Christmas is a happy time. A time in which families come together, give each other presents, enjoy delicious food. A time in which people come to peace with things that may bother them.

    BTW, Glühwein is mulled wine...
