My Christmas

The midnight goose and my Christmas tree :

The tradition of lighting a candle on a Christmas cake goes back deep into European cultures . It could be that during the deep European winters it was a way of bringing light and warmth ..
or the one I personally like .. Jesus Was born on that day . In a tiny stable surrounded by cattle and sheep .. the Saviour was born .

Perhaps … I am still too deeply rooted in my childhood when the advent of Christmas was fun . There would be a nip in the air and school would be most over . It was a time when we had it easy in school with Christmas concerts and Fetes lined up !
Everything seemed colorful and most of all our huge Christmas tree in school . With perfectly arranged ornaments it stood regal in our school auditorium.
There would always be a smaller tree at my home .. the one I decorated with tinsels and ornaments . It was my tree .. and every year I had new designs with it !
Many years later .. just like before .. we have a Christmas tree .. adorned with ornaments collected over the years .. from various cities , various cultures with their own stories that come together to form a happy truti fruiti of color confections .. it’s my Christmas tradition , well one of them .. the one I have been following all my life !

Merry Christmas from me and my home to yours .. Hope you have a very merry Christmas and a wonderful holiday ahead !
