Technological change
First the real candles became replaced by electronic candles. Then many decorations replaced by plastic correspondence. And finally the whole tree was switched into artificial one.
Technology solved many problems. No risk of fire, no little spiders brought into the house along with a real tree. But is it nothing but "a delusion to believe that the technological changes of our era have rendered irrelevant the wisdom of the ages and the sages."

Because Christmas is also about the messages, like said by Goethe: "Hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if possible, speak a few reasonable words." Remember to keep it merry! =)

Sami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to Chrissy clubSami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to H CIt's funny how all the decorations have become artificial in the name of safety and convenience and as I read this I realize how much I like that. Makes it so much easier. I guess I've gotten practical after all these years. :)

Sami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to Shuttering YukonSami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to autofantasia clubSami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to AmazingstokerOh, and that indeed has been the case, to have real candles on a tree, even when I was child! =O And actually once the fire did catch the tree! Luckily we manage to extinguish it right away.
And I say one need to be careful also with the electric equipments! So, I wish you a safe Christmas ;-)

Sami Serola (inactiv… club has replied to Annemarie clubThank you, and Happy Holidays! =)
our Christmas decorations again ... and obviously were hungry
and oh NO ... but oh YES ... nibble nibble nibble ... need I say
more ...? cross words ? no sheer delight at not having to
do anything ;-) other than throw them all away ... what is left
that is ... and of the mice . . . .? if they are hibernating
up there in the loft ... no doubt the babies will be born with
a star on their heads ... baubles around their necks ...
and Mum and Dad will have little paper hats on their heads
and will be pulling crackers ... I leave the rest to your
imagination .... have a lovely Christmas Sami with your
family ... and a happy new year ;-)
