					<description><![CDATA[Keram,

Thanks for summing up 2008 in your very creative, unique and insightful way.  It was great to read about your Christmas traditions between your mom and dad.  I commend your courage in and faith in social networking.  

I believe technology especially the internet can be an amazing resource but if not careful humanity can lose the essence of their human spirit and compassion through isolation and comfort zones of avoiding regular social interaction.  I myself have not interacted as much for social networking for 2008 as I had before and have read more books.  I also have been more of a giver this season than a receiver and feel truly blessed and fruitful in my decision to be more selfless.

Also it is important for us to realize this is a season to celebrate light, hope and joy and that through us coming together with family and friends and loved ones can encourage the generations to come to keep this special kindred spirit alive always in our hearts!!!

May no one spend this season without having been a giver or receiver of love and kindness for others and themselves.  Best Christmas wishes to all families and friendships around the globe! 

God bless!!!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I like what you said about celebrating the light and that most peoples honor it in one form or another.

In our Yule celebration this week I reminded all who came about those very points... this is a cosmically magickal time of year! It just is...

I asked my group to talk about all the gifts of darkness as well... such as transformation and regeneration... often times people are too ready to only see negative aspects but all things have 2 sides... even darkness.

This is my favorite time of year! Whether I an all alone or with friends and family I feel so much joy in my heart.

My wish to all is that each and everyone finds their joy as well...

blessings!
