Thanks in advance to Chris 4 getting me started on this 1!
I’m a secular humanist 100%-see my recent blog belief-o-matic results
r celebrations r eclectic to say the least
a mix of the awfully 2 commercial santa and we even do st. nick 2 on the 5th cuz we love 2 give
and pagan traditions-holly, tree, winter solstice
and yes we celebrate the birthday of jesus on the same level as we do all good world leaders including but not limited 2martin luther king, ghandi and many of the fore fathers/mothers of our country
we will celebrate hanukah with r jewish friends
and at school I try to teach about coexistence by reaching out to all who have celebrations of light and add lessons with a folk art motivation-los posadas, kwanza, ramadan, hanukah, dawhili they all get equal standing to the fat dude in the red suit!
so here are my memories dicken's style:
past: 1971 3AM peeking party with ‘lil bro-two packages bigger than either of us....we dragged sleeping bags down and curled up to those huge boxes...in the am we opened two shiny vinyl beanbag chairs that we slept in for the next two nights!
present: meeting my parents in wdw in 2000, wife's virgin disney trip and dd was in full time magical belief mode i waz there as a kid...cuz paternal grandparent lived an hour away so we saved those E tix and went a few times while growing up
future: 2007 is up in the air dd has show on the 24 and we haven't made any plans to travel YET home 4 now i'm sure there will be some wandering! we do have ticket's to a christmas carol....i'm certain my flickr photos will keep u posted on r celebrations
so stay tuned!
