We finally arrived last week before Christmas. I still have a lot 'of things to do and I hope to do it before 24: the end of this year was rather dizzying. So now I take this opportunity to write this post because I expect that I will not be long in coming days, but I wanted to do in all you my warmest wishes! takes up a old piece (found online) the journalist Michele Serra on how to celebrate Christmas secularly. I do it "my" because I could sympathize with and I wanted to propose it:
"A Nativity is truly a wonderful thing to celebrate. Especially in this era elderly and repetitive, which seems to turn his thoughts to the future a chance. There a lot of people in the world that continues to arise every day. The majority was born poor, insecure and with the prospect of being much more narrow than ours. born because we are born, without fuss, without further assurance that the - basic - of being alive, of being in the world and of wanting to stay. If the tradition of Christmas is so strong and felt in those houses, like mine, where you do not believe in God, it's because the worship of the Nativity has an irrepressible force, universal, beyond our fragile opinions. It celebrates the life that begins, which starts each year. This is celebrated, too, through a child born naked and wandering, warmed by the breath of two good and big beasts, mere presence at leisure rather embarrassingly poor in half in which we are established. As a child I believed that the Trinity was composed of baby Jesus, the ox and dall'asinello. All in all I still believe now. "(Michele Serra)
Here. For me, Christmas is also this, and much more. Greetings to all of you.
