"Through A Child's Eyes" by HT
Most of us remember Christmas from our childhood eyes as a magical, enchanted, exciting time of the year and experience. The excitement from the anticipation of the arrival of Santa Claus through a child's eyes on Christmas Eve is unlike any experience or feeling that we would ever have. Christmas, because we were children seemed like it took forever to arrive and the time between Christmas's seemed like eternities. Even after we discover that Mom and Dad were really Old Saint Nick, Christmas was still so very, very special. The gifts, good food, times with cousins and other relatives that come together make it seem the most special of times and occasions Little did we realize as children the stress that Christmas can bring out in families
and loved ones during this very special time of the year.
Only as we journey into adulthood and experience Christmas from a wiser, more discerning age and eyes that we realize why our Uncle George so many years ago,who was so jolly during our Christmas gala, but then fell asleep in Grandpa's chair afterwards, wasn't just tired from Christmas like Mommy said , but he was passed out drunk. And while most family members were in good spirit (natural or bottled), there was always some tension that we as children and through children's eyes we didn't pick up on.
Yes unfortunately and in these times more than in days of yore for a lot of families specifically the adults the Yuletide brings lots of stress and tension. Making sure gifts are bought, spending money when it is tight, fighting crowds, trying to make things perfect all these things put pressure to the point where sometimes Christmas for some isn't that enjoyable and at times even depressing.
While for the most part my Christmases have always been enjoyable. I can now relive Christmas again through a child's eyes, my grandchildren. Just as I at a young age and later my children I can experience the wonder, the sparkle, the innocence that only a child brings to us.
So as we near another holiday season, whether your single or married, whether you have children or grandchildren or even if you have none, the best wish I can have for you is to enjoy Christmas through a child's eyes even if it's your inner child .
MERRY CHRISTMAS
To Goliath, YMC, LH, Brian, Jules, Chopper, GG, Syn II Cindiloohoo,Ruth Ann and all the regular readers of GAW and the BatBlog a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!!
