What is the meaning of Christmas II

I ran these ads on the local radio station here on the Eastern Shore of Virginia

What is the true meaning of Christmas? Ask Ebenezer Scrooge or the Grinch. Both encountered that it is not the things we buy or own or strive to possess. It is an inner spirit of love and compassion that permeates our very natures especially at this time of year. It is a desire to see smiles on young and old alike. It is a time of music as the Hoo’s sing of Christmas and of dinners on the table as the family gathers round. It is a time of sharing what God has so bountifully given us. That is the meaning of Christmas.
