raVen_image Posted December 16, 2001 Share Posted December 16, 2001 My culture celebrates the winter solstice. In a way, we celebrate the SEASON, rather than a particular day. (which is OK...Jesus was an exceptional man...but he wasn't born in December) Beginning this Wednesday, we will begin a week-long session of drunken debauchery, singing, dancing, eating, screwing, gift-exchange, and fellowship: all in the name of celebrating LIFE in this season where everything dies. Much of what we do is similar to the standard Xmas festivities, but we do it in celebration of ourselves, and not the Christian Messiah, or a jolly, gift-giving elf. The trappings of Christmas are all borrowed from our festival, anyway, so it is similar to the regular practices...it just lasts longer. The actual soltice will be recognised on Friday-Saturday...but we like to start early Let the Wassail flow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natty Posted December 16, 2001 Share Posted December 16, 2001 My grandma, Aunt and Uncle will be comin over for lunch (and maybe my cousin if he's not working) and then I dunno what we're doing for dinner- usually we go to my other cousins house (daughter of my aunt and uncle) for dinner, and her husbands family come over as well, but I dunno if that's happening yet or not. My bf might also be coming over, his parents just got seperated, me finks... (ooooooooooookay... the puppy is playing with a belt? Should she be doing that? Blah who cares it isn't mind so I'm not worried)... he kinda wants to spend it with a family that's together or something, I dunno, but I told him not to forget about his family on Chrissy day- they'll need him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
