Merry Christmas;


Christmas 1961

Christmas (Old English: Cristesmæsse, meaning "Christ's Mass" is an annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ and a widely observed cultural holiday, celebrated generally on December night 24 and Christmas day December 25 by billions of people around the world. A feast central to the Christian liturgical year, it closes the Advent season and initiates the twelve days of Christmastide, which ends after the twelfth night. Christmas is a civil holiday in many of the world's nations. 
In this spirit I wish you all, believer or non believer, Christian or non Christian,

A very Merry Christmas!  

May the New year 2014 be a wonderful year for you.

    A very Merry Christmas to you too!

    That tree looks like it is decorated with burning sparklers and candles. I am wondering whether there is anything really burning, or whether it is just the photo that makes it look that way.
