Do you wish Christmas would come and go quickly or do you look forward to it with great enthusiasm? Do you believe Christmas has lost its meaning given all the materialistic connotations associated with it or does it still have a special place in your heart?

Thanks Steve.It's not that christmas gets me down at all. I was just agreeing with Ziah that it's become so commercialised that the real meaning has benn lost to a lot of people. I have a lot to be grateful for in my life. I nearly died at age 41 so getting a second chance is the biggest gift I could wish for.
i agree giving to sharities is a fantastic thing to do and I do when I can afford to.
