What are you waiting for?

     I will open with.........Merry Christmas to all........I have yet to yield on my right and my choice to  say Merry Christmas.  I read and hear allot of folks shying away from saying 'Merry Christmas', and then complain about it....here's is the heart of the matter. If you said 'Merry Christmas' in the past, why are you afraid to say it now?  Have you been told to by some pundit who feels it isn't correct politically?  Have you been asked by a religious fanatic from another faith? Have you been told that its just easier for everyone to cruise through the season by saying 'Happy Holidays'?  Lets put it in perspective.......The Jewish faith celebrates Hannakuh also known as the Festival of Lights or Festival of Redication , Islamic followers celebrate Eid al-Fitr which marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting, Fitr means 'to break the fast' symbolizing the breaking of the fasting period......can kind of see where our 'breakfast' comes from also. Kwanzaa is a week long celebration of African American heritage and runs from 12/26 thru 1/1 anually and concludes with a feast and gift giving.

     My point is this, when the framers of the Constitution were piecing this magnificent document together, this is exactly what they had in mind....a land where freedom of religion and speech could be exercised.....Say Merry Christmas to everyone, they may just respond 'and have a blessed Ramadan'.....or 'peace be with you this Hannakuh'..........'join me for a Kwanzaa meal tonight?'........lets not meet in the middle, lets meet and share each others celebrations , we all keep our freedom of religion and we all can share stories of holidays past...........try it, you may just start a new tradition......Peace.......Michael Papa
