A refresh on the holiday celebration.



It's been a while i must say. to long in fact, though not without reason. I have been focusing on my other hobby photography when I can as well as work. above is just one example of what i have been doing. 

As it's nearing Christmas many thoughts have been on my mind. one of which is just how materialistic and culturally meaningless the holiday's have become. It has actually gotten to the point where I am legitimately uncomfortable celebrating Christmas the way my family normally does because there is no spiritual mindset behind the celebration any more. Yeah we spend time together as a family and we have a wonderful time but that's the limit. It's disappointing to say the least. 

So this year for those people who are interested in considering an idea with me, Let me suggest that this year take a couple of hours out of your Christmas for yourself. keep nothing more than a bible and a prayer book by your side, just out of curiosity to see what God will bring to the surface in your heart. It's just an idea by no means does anyone have to listen should they read this and think it a strange or unnecessary opportunity. But I think it should be time we all got back to the basics of what Christmas and the holiday season were truly about. Not simply family or Friends or giving, rather the God or deity we all formed these holiday's to celebrate and honor.
