"Christmas Eve" here.

I'm not a Muslim, so I can't celebrate Ramadan,
I'm not a Hindu so I can't celebrate Diwali,
I'm not a Jew, so I can't celebrate Hanukkah,
And unfortunately, I'm an Atheist so I can't (while being true to myself) celebrate Christmas.

However, I do celebrate a time of year of coming together with family and friends, and simply enjoying their company.

So for me it's not Christmas, or the Holidays, but simply Xmas.

Merry Xmas to you all from our little getaway in the hills. Unlike normal Aussie Xmas weather (30º+) it's thunderstorms, bucketing down rain, 13ºC outside and a FIRE GOING! At this time of year??????

The world has gone mad!

Anyway, here's Cheers!

From a foggy Detroit, Michigan, to all ΩF members across the world: may you and your family enjoy a very Merry Christmas, or a joyous season of whatever holiday you celebrate. Best wishes to my online family!

Fabulous post. Looking forward to the day when we all accept and respect whomever or whatever we worship to (or not), or sleep with, without governments or other factions condemning, criticizing or condescending to.

Thanks for all the likes. I should have mentioned that my youngest is the tall dancer in the middle 🥰

Luckily for her, she favours her mother

Here in central Texas it's always Merry Christmas as the city puts up the annual banner on the highways entering town.
