The best Christmas memories are from church. There was a Rihanna With Baby Shirtcandlelight service at our church. When I got older, I was allowed to walk down the aisle and stop at every pew, and the first person seated would light their candle from the big one I carried. When all the candles were lit, the lights would go off, and a hush would always fall over the congregation as we all sat in the dark with our lit candles glowing brightly. We sang all the old Christmas hymns, such as Silent Night, O Little Town Of Bethlehem, We Three Kings, and more. I was always mesmerized as the Pastor told the story of Christ’s birth, and usually there was a live nativity made up of real farm animals and little kids playing the parts. There was always a children’s time, when the Pastor called the little children to come and sit up front, near the alter, while he told them a story having to do with the birth of Jesus, and gave each kid a candy cane. Christmas Eve services were so great back then. Now there are no candles, just little battery operated lights, and the service is held at either 3 pm or 6 pm, because families are too busy to stay up so late on Christmas Eve.

Old World was Lunar. Most early civilisations have a Celtics Clover Skeleton Basketball Boston Celtics Basketball 2023 NBA Playoff Shirt based calendar because it was so much easier to plot and make sense of time. It is not just China, even Scotland mesolithic era (8000 BC), in Hindu, in Islam and possibly most lost civilisations. Chinese have the lunar calendar since ancient times, and delineate as 60 years cycle. And used 12 years Zodiac and created very sophisticated system, numerology, astrological concepts around it. Almost all East Asia adopted Chinese approach, so they have in effect a common calendar and fortunately they followed China so it was so much easier for all to co-exist in synergy. Much like the whole of Europe logically followed Rome. Solar. A few like Japan after modernisation dropped lunar and adopted Western solar calendar, the Gregorian. Most Japanese don’t celebrate lunar new year anymore. For some traditional and religious festivals and rituals, I believe lunar calendar may still be referred, certainly for Buddhist rituals. Likewise Gregorian is the universal standard for the whole world and all in Asia to interact and run all the world affairs, work and business.
