Christmas Sadness

The day is one that feels sad and melancholy, as I am taking down the two Christmas trees and the other various decorations for the holidays. Typically we try to leave them up until January 6th, which is Epiphany, but with today (Sunday) being the 4th, we celebrated Epiphany at mass this week. So instead of waiting until a very hectic Tuesday of this week, we are working on the task today.

It feels sad, not because the holidays are over, but because we are again packing away things that have such memories. Good memories, but also sad ones due to the passing of loved ones.

I will be back later today to catch up on all my comments, so please look there for more from me.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
