An early start on Christmas

WWJS? What would Jesus say? Well, I'm sure it would not be "Shop joyfully," which was on the first ad I saw today for Christmas. So I thought I'd better get my message out early too.

Christmas shopping: consumables, consumables, consumables; least packaging possible; If it's an object, make sure it's got a long life. Or else make your gift a gift: a chicken, a goat, a heifer, clean water, something like that.

Whatever path you take make sure it doesn't leave you exhausted, broke and cynical, but rather fulfilled, generous and a bit more in love with the world.
