The Different Drummer Soundtrack
A different perspective in changing times
Now I am in a faith that has its own religious holidays, and Christmas isn't one of them. We don't have anything that is similar that occurs around the same time of year. We celebrate the Birth of the Bab on 20 October and the Birth of Baha'u'llah on 12 November, and we have a time for gift giving during Ayyam-i-ha, which runs from 26 February to 1 March, but that's not considered a holiday.
So then, where does Christmas belong in my heart?
Christmas Eve is one of those in-between days that people haven't quite figured out what to do with. Is it a holiday or not, or is it maybe a "half-day?" For me, it was a regular workday. Which didn't really bother me.
One of the reasons for my recent lame posting habits has been lack of sleep. It used to be that my sleep habits resembled that of the baby dolls many remember playing with as children. Make the doll horizontal and the eyes close. If you made me horizontal, I'd be out like a light. But not recently.
