Getting in the Holiday Spirit

I am looking forward to the holidays. It is a great time of year... it wasn't always that way for me though. Holidays used to be very difficult. Now I have realized that you get out of it what you put into it. I like putting up our tree. I like hanging the ornaments all the while the Rock & Roll X-Mas tunes cranked up. I get a special feeling... a time of renewed energy... renewed love... renewed peace. I like that it is a time to blatantly show people how you feel about them. It is a time when it is okay to go all out and lavish people with love and gifts. It puts an exclamation point on my relationships with people. And I will tell you what, there is nothing like the song "O Holy Night." I don't care who is signing it or what style it is in. It is my favorite Christmas song.
