Dear Readers,
Whenever the holiday season begins, I have the
flush of excitement and anticipation that I felt as a
child when the decorations started to come out, I
wrote my list to Santa, and Mom and I planned what
cookies to make that year. But then the experience
of the years is recalled and my excitement wanes,
eroded by too many seasons of decorations coming
out in October to give stores more time to make
money and of messages to buy, buy, buy bombarding
me in the newspaper and on TV. Tears may enter
my eyes as I watch the Hallmark card and Kodak
moment ads, but I quickly wipe them away as I
ponder the fact that the promotion of such rich
family experiences all but disappears once the
holidays are over. I feel manipulated.
I countered all the commercialism with my own
children by giving them each a modest allowance
with which to buy gifts for family members, which
encouraged them to apply their creativity and
crafting skills to make the money stretch. The
present opening became joyful and noncompetitive,
full of laughs and gratitude. We have kept our
tradition of thoughtful but not extravagant gifts
even as they have become adults. It’s nice to not be
pressured to overspend when we all seem to be living
on tight budgets.
The other reason I’m jaded about holidays is
because it looks like a once-a-year-giving-frenzy
