Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

THE END OF 2017

Tis the Season to be Spartan!

FIRST and foremost, I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 

I hope, like myself, you were able to spend it with family and friends.

Many people often use the term that Christmas is too commercialized. That we concentrate too much on the products. That we have forgotten the spirit of the festive season.

Bollocks!

Sure, there are some who concentrate on the acquisition factor. But I think those to be in the minority.

When I look out upon the world, I see lots of people going to parties and socializing with those who they may not have seen in months. Lots of cheer and merriment.

When I look at the gifts I receive, and I'll be honest, my first impression is "what did I get". 

But after a while, those things fade.

But what doesn't disappear is the fun you had with those toys.

These things are conduits into creating lasting memories.

I can still remember my fifth Christmas, and the fun I had with my Dad playing with some product. It's the laughter and the feelings that endure.

As for my Soccer teams, you have brought me many great moments.

And I hope that we have more to come!
