You don't Understand-YOU HAVE KIDS!
A chapter in the book Geoff's Ramblings
Christmas Not The Same For Everyone.
by Sankey
Background I decided on this way of adding more to my book "The Little Dog That Wouldn't Let Go" I just got finished, so as not to leave things "up in the air" and me still feeling I had to add more to my story. |
Yes! This is probably just another of Geoff's Rambles.
Christmas is really just for the kids. Apart from the real meaning of Christmas that many are not interested in nor have a clue about, there are a lot of us out there without children. Spare a thought for those of us that Christmas is not the big deal and while some out there worship Christmas and Easter...not for any of the real reasons of these seasons - it is not the BIG DEAL for some of us. We may not want to be "making up the numbers" at a family gathering or we may not want to do what everyone else wants us to do to make THEM the centre of attention. The old saying can be used in reverse..."You don't understand because YOU HAVE KIDS!" I am posting this for a friend who wrote to us recently and also lost her Mum not all that long ago, so now her older sister wants to take charge and for everyone to do what she wants...seeing she is also a Mum and a Grandmother this year. So spare a thought for the childless at Christmas.
