Just saw the first
Christmas commercial.
When did God
Leave the scene
And money take power
Over the most
Glorious day of the year?
Halloween not even here,
Thanksgiving not been shared,
But Christmas tree decorations
Holiday music; loud and clear.
Hoping to clean your pockets ?
Wouldn’t it be nicer
To share time and a dinner
No gifts under the tree,
Just beautiful lights;
Can you buy time together?
What would the stores do
If on Black Friday morn
They opened the doors
And the sidewalks were bare?
Can you really buy happiness ?

I insist on enjoying one Holiday at a time…Hard to do…but, I want to enjoy each one in the way they should…Halloween for fun…Thanksgiving for Thankfulness…and Christmas for the Birth of our Savior…

I saw the first Christmas stuff in July and I was disgusted. It was bad enough a couple of years ago when I saw it in September. Soon it will be May, then there will be no break. Companies are finding any way to reap the money associated with Christmas. How long before kids have no idea when Jesus was born? It doesn’t help with governments saying “It will no longer be called Christmas, but the holiday season”. I am not religious myself, but it does infuriate me. After all, even the name of it is “Christ” The birth of Christ. Not “The birth of the time to go and spend money you don’t have to fill the pockets of corporations who don’t give a flying banana about you as long as you spend the money”

Oh my God, July? How rediculous is this? It has nothing to do with God in the business world. All about the money. Your comment is right on target
