    May Christmas learn from Thanksgiving

         
              Last Christmas I didn't buy anybody anything.  It felt rebellious and liberating.  It felt good to resist the consumerist free-for-all.  I had to explain to a few people it wasn't for lack of love, just that I hate shopping.   This year I intend to do the same, a "Church of Stop Shopping" Christmas, with nothing made by slaves in China!  But I will give some handmade gifts.

               Christmas should be more like Thanksgiving.  Thanksgiving has the right recipe:  family, food, hanging out and no gifts.
