In civilizations long since past, the aging female was looked upon with respect. The oldest in the community was often called the wise woman, crone, healer, witch or just mother.

Personally, I like the term crone. I want to be a Crone.

Happy Holidays from a PC Challenged Grandma

Grandma and her family celebrate Christmas. I’ve said it. It’s a religious holiday that we embrace to the fullest, both spiritually and commercially.

Other religions celebrate holidays during the month of December, too, but Grandma doesn’t have a lot of knowledge of these holidays unless they are part of a religion followed by her friends. It’s not that she doesn’t care or want to know, it’s just that a person can only know so much. Grandma is always open to learning more. She doesn’t believe that learning about the beliefs of others in any way jeopardizes her own beliefs.

Holidays besides religious holidays are also being celebrated throughout the world during the month and into next month.

So, please forgive Grandma her ignorance. But, please, accept the best wishes that you find happiness in celebrating your Holiday, no matter what that holiday may be.

Happy Holidays
