Ahhh Capoeira, that is the nicest thing I heard today and I hope you get your wish because I think that our parents and their love for their us is the most important thing we hold dear to our hearts!

What a lovely thread  . I wish my dad could still do that too. I just wish for a Christmas where I don't look back, only look forward.
... and wish I could be with HIM...

How sad!
I just lost my dad.
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring him home again...

I nearly cried in Kipa today. Everywhere Christmas accesories and i wasnt prepared for this at all. İn Holland you get the christmas feeling from the lights in the streets and the cold weather and everybody talking about their plans. I think the time has started that I miss 'my country', and I never thought I'd say this. (ı am referring to the fact that I just called Holland 'my' country)
How happy I am that I organized a christmasdinner with all my turkish friends, I wish I could celebrate it with my family, Kadir and grandmother.

I'd like to be with my family in Ireland for Christmas but I can't as I work in Italy (and I'll be working on Christmas Day at 8am!!). However I will phone them on Christmas morning so at least I can hear their voices.

All I want for Christmas is for all my loved ones to be safe and healthy. And also to have him celebrate my birthday, spend christmas and countdown to the new year together. The latter is a wish which won't come true this year...

Me too, and my 23 year old nephew 4 days previous. I'm lucky though, I have a large family and we're all holding each other up. My wish is for those who have lost someone special this year but have no-one to give them comfort. May God give them peace xx

I will miss spending Christmas with my parents andmy brother's family. This year, for the first time in 28 years, I'll be away from them. I wish there was a way to both see them and sort out my personal problems that make me go Ireland...

I will spend Second Christmasday (we have two here) with my family, the first I don't know yet - depends of what plans my mum has, maybe I'll visit her. But to be honest: I hate Christmas - that dark and cold periode when everyone should be - like an obligation - happy.

Me too, i lost my father 2 years ago. And everytime i hear this song ( Dance with my father again - Lther Vandross) i cry. But this is one of my favorite song. Try listening to this one but be ready with a hanky.And my husband is back in turkey to serve the army. So im spending Christmas with my friends here in Canada coz my family is back in the Philippines. What a strange and a bit lonely Christmas it will be. Happy holidays to everybody.

My father died in 1996, over 10 years ago, and of course I still miss him when almost the whole family is together. But I miss him most when at holiday because I can't tell him about my experiences and he loved foreign countries. When possible I go to a church in every country I visit to light a candle for him or to dedicate a Mass for him (though I am not Catholic myself anymore, he was). In Japan I did not find a church so I lighted candles at several Shinto-temples, not the same but it's the thought that counts. In Turkey I did this in Istanbul and in Hatay.

This is true for me too. I think often...Dad would have loved it here. I even imagine the parts of the trip that would have excited or bored him. I also miss his looking at my pictures and him bragging to his friends about his 'tough' little girl taking on the world alone one country at a time. I'm sure your dad held the same pride in your adventures.
I guess it's just good to know that they loved us and the way we are today is somehow due to the things we learned watching and interacting with them.
To all who have lost loved ones...may your season be filled with warm, loving memories of them.

Well said libralady I don,t think you are as old and grumpy as me but I agree with your sentiments. Christmas has lost much of its appeal due to commercialization.Last night on television I saw some morons queuing for the latest computer game while a large section of the world are starving.

Christmas is what you make it Joey and Libralady ! If you succumb to the commercialism and then spend Christmas Day doing nothing but eating and watching TV then you WILL feel it lost its magic.
It has never lost its magic for me and I still wake on Christmas Day with the same magical feeling I had when I was young. Last year all our family decided to spend only £10 on each other and it was the best Christmas ever - we had so much fun trying to get as much for our £10 as possible! Its not to do with presents, its about being with friends and family and having fun, switching off the TV and enjoying eachother's company.
Personally I dont mind seeing Christmas Trees and lights go up on December 1st. The build up to Christmas is wonderful

Yes Joey, I understood, but you said that because of this Christmas had lost it's appeal! It can only lose it's appeal if you do the same, surely?  I was also answering Libralady's post as well.
