[color=chocolate]I agree you should be allowed to not celebrate it if you don't want to. I myself and my family only have a small get together of just immediate family and give each other things we really need and that don't end up in the landfill. Sometimes we give each other money instead to use it for food or what we really need. Its a pain in the ass to redecorate and do all those crazy things. We usually have christmas lights all year round in our bedroom because we think its pretty. Christmas trees take up so much space so I don't particularly like them either. I don't really care what other people do at christmas haha but my christmases are really really small because thats my choice.


I don't mind that. I just see so much in retail and what people spend and do, it kind of makes me question. As a kid, I did the same thing. Granted, I do my son stuff, my folks and my boyfriend because I do care. I don't want to make them feel bad. It's my down fall.

By the way, sorry for the spelling errors. I sent the post without fixing them. lol"[/align]

"I am all about freedom to decide what you should or should not celebrate, but there is an ongoing trend is being forced into it, simply because family, friends and loved ones enjoy it. Now, you would think people would respect your wishes in opting out of a holiday, especially Christmas but nope, they feel the need to make you feel bad. In my case, my folks make me feel bad because of my son. They expect me to celebrate, even though it goes against everything I believe in. Even the person I love (though understanding), wants to celebrate. I know people will say, "but its tradition and not that bad..." But what don't I get a choice in the matter?

Unless you live alone or have no one, not celebrating any holiday is hard. People will put you down, make you feel guilty and do the exact opposite of what most holidays stand for. For example, Christmas is suppose to be the day of Jesus's birth. It should be celebrated by Christians, but it became a consume based holiday. So, I want to opt out... I am neither Christian or a supporter of consume based holidays, therefore don't I have an option? Well, technically yes, but that also means I have to suffer through arguments, hate, guilt because of my son and possibly being kicked out simply because of my wishes.

The thing was, I wanted to create my own traditions and possibly ;do something different. Maybe, I will take my son some place and enjoy the free day.... Or maybe allow my son his happiness, and I will go on my merry way, taking another day to do something with him. Traditions don't always have to follow the same path.

We become so absorbed with holidays, we forget the important part of anything. I look at the place I work at and question why people even bother buying things that just end up in landfills. Do anyone even think beyond the normal excitement of a present? Have we become so self absorb that we forget about all the people around us suffering? Why not take that money we will spend on gifts and do something good with it.... Even for one holiday to teach the consumerism is not our lives and what the true meaning of a holiday means? Or have we forgotten that?

But then again, I will be called stupid for even stating such a thing.

I ask Christians a lot "What would Jesus do on Christmas?" And I never get an answer. I always get some strange response like its tradition.... Well, no its greed. Maybe take the greed and do something positive with it. Give to those in need and start finding ways to help others. Maybe for one x-mas people can actually do something positive. "

Posted in Tell a scary Story Game (The Creepy Door) Posted 6 years ago

"((I have not been on much because I been so busy, but I am trying to be more active, so I decided to create a game.))

The idea of the game is post one sentence that would complete a story. Just one sentence only.

Name of story: The Creepy Door

A long time ago there was an old house with a creepy door.

"Halloween I went out with my boyfriend and just kind of went to the park. It was a beautiful day. Then went trick or treating with my son. It wasn't a crazy day. Just normal day. It was nice to do something this year. Usually I don't get that chance often.

I was hoping for anyone on here to post up some pictures of their Halloween costumes!"

I hate haunted houses... ever since I was like 7 or 8 and my Mom accidently took me to grab night(and even back then I hated being touched). I freaked out soooo bad that they had to take me through a special area to a diffrent set of doors to leave. Didn't help either that they had a large movie screen set up while waiting in line with gory and scary scenes from movies and they had the Indiana Jones part on where the shaman guy or something reaches in and pulls out a beating heart... Also didn't help that my grandma never let me watch horror/scary movies as a kid. I watched them over at my friends houses or my Dad would sneak them in when she was in her room or gone for a few hours. LOL.


I hate being touched but luckily for today they can't do that. I am not so much scared, as I am uncomfortable and annoyed by being touched. The place I went they don't touch you and they are good too. They even interact if you speak to them. I use to watch horror films with my mom. My first horror film was People Under the Stairs.

Ixora:
Awww cute!

Nah. The only thing I'm looking forward to this halloween is swimming in saltwater since it's been a while and for 4 days I'm gonna be surrounded by it XD
The place will probably have some halloween festivities. I've been to where I'm going before a couple years back but not on halloween. I can't remember what month but they had an amazing fire show, so hopefully there'll be something nice going on this weekend.


That's Awesome! I live by the Jersey shore, about 45 minutes but even being close I don't get to go often. That should be awesome though!

Mousy:
Wow! It sounds like you've had a really eventful Halloween season! I'm planning on taking my 2.5 y/o out for real trick or treating this year. I'm so excited! He did some trick or treating at the zoo last year, but I just wasn't brave enough to take him out to houses. Even still, we'll probably just stick to our immediate neighborhood. Baby steps. XD I need to come up with a costume he'll be willing to wear. He's not a fan of anything other than shorts and t-shirts and absolutely NOTHING on his head.

I've been able to dress up several times this month for my work. We had a book character parade and my whole team did Alice in Wonderland. I've edited their faces out. Idk how they feel about being on the internet. XD I was tweedle-dee and my teaching partner was Tweedle-dum. I got to dress up all week for Red Ribbon Week- if you follow all of the dress up days, that means you won't do drugs right? and I wore my butterfly costume for a family curriculum night. Overall, i'm pleased with the amount of dressing up I got.


My team and I


My Butterfly Costume

I had antennae at the beginning of the night, but I took the pictures after I got home. XD


That is awesome! I love dressing up but those costumes are amazing and good quality!

My son was like that at that age. He hated to be dressed lol... But I said in order to get candy he has to be. Now, he gets excited. lol.... He is 8 and this year he finally has a friend to go with in the neighborhood. "
