Living In The Material World
Does it not strike you as odd, that something comes over the population this time of year. We are sold the dream of tinsel and fairy lights coupled with clean white snow and its a wonderful life on the telly,AGAIN. This dear friends is the sprit of Christmas, and how it is sold to the masses. True it represents an historic event on the Christian calender but that is where the similarity ends. This most holiest of Christian ethos has been well and truely hi-jacked by corporate UK limited.
The sheer anticipation and greed of those who part us from our money with second rate overpriced crap,most of which is either broken or bored with the following day is breathtaking. Just take a look at our own fair loads of money city. A festive feast of playtime delights awaits us lucky punters if we are prepared to pay for it. It makes you wonder who this festive season is for,are we celebrating a birthday or feeding the greed of ever hungry vultures who prey on the gullible public.
There is no kill-joy mentality here,but a small reality check,or a little warning,enjoy this time and find time for others,but be careful that the old saying of,a fool and his/her money are easily parted does not apply to you.
