Hi again,wave Yup obviously children can have/view more magic in something more so than some adults do.

Ever hear the song that singer Josh Groban sang titled "Believe"? Beautiful song.

Christmas is more of a commercial event and Santa must be responsible for it grin


Something funny, I think.

4 Stages of Santa Claus


1. You do believe in Santa.

2. Then you do not believe in Santa.

3. Then you are Santa.

4. And finally You do look like Santa giggle


(Not you just "you" in a general way)

Only difference between adults and "children" is WE think we know more.
Maybe "WE" could learn something.

True but I don't see that happening not in my part of the world anyway.dunno

Most adults expect the kids to listen and pay close attention to what is being said. Whatever happened to adults practice/lead by example?Don't see too much of that.It seems to me that there are two totally different rules for Adults and children.
Just my opinion anyway.

If u buy into all the gifts and taking and squabbles with family members that's what Ull get.

If u enjoy it for what it's meant to be about which for me is when all my family get together and be grateful we r still.here to enjoy each others company..having laughs and fun that's what Ull get.

Choice is urs cheers

They tried it when I was living in Leeds, UK, complaining that Christmas decoration on streets hurts their feelings...
It's amazing how quickly people forget...I think the European immigrants were more outraged than the locals... dunno
