Hi all,
I don't know whether you are celebrating any holidays this time of the year, but I'm not offended if anybody wishes me a Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or Solstice. To me it's "Merry Christmas" (and you can take that to mean any holiday you're celebrating - or not). I'm just completely fed up with the "Happy Holidays" that aren't even on the same day or days for everybody
- and I work with somebody who describes himself as a Catholic Buddhist, and to me that's not a contradiction.
Hanukkah is over (belated Happy Hanukkah), but the rest are still to come, so Merry Christmas, Happy Solstice, Happy Kwanzaa to all of you. We shouldn't negate our holidays to not offend anybody but rather recognize that different people celebrate different holidays and take the wish the person offers for our own.
