"Merry Christmas!" says the stranger.
"Happy Birthday" says I.
"It isn't my birthday..."
"I'm not Christian."
I gave my student a chance to make up his finals and oral exam since he was in the hospital with dengue fever. I'm still waiting for him to show up:banghead:
Typical . We try do something nice and people don't even stop.to think about the time your giving up just to help them
But why is there a need to take offense in the first place?
Happy Holidays, then.
Some places give extra time off, so if you get any time off, you should be happy.
I used to work holidays - happy because of double overtime.
I can get behind the happy holidays thing. That, to me, is more "P.C." and just plain more polite.
I have to admit i struggle with this.
My son is just over 3mo old, and so we don't have to worry about it this year, but we soon will. The rest of our families celebrate Christmas, and expect us to as well. We want to see everyone and enjoy each others company, and we know our boy will get presents from grandma and grandpa, but we don't want to teach him that a bearded fat white man with little slaves actually exists.
We'll probably teach him about the "magic" of Christmas and that Santa is pretend. But he will also learn about the other holidays, religions, etc the same way.
This is strange. My battery is draining pretty quickly when I'm not even touching it
This.... remembers being devastated when she found out he wasn't real...
