Non-existent nativities
I am finding it more and more difficult each year to buy Christmas cards which have any reflection on the real meaning of Christmas. This year, I visited about a dozen shops before I finally found some suitable cards. I didn’t want cards with Santa, reindeer or snowmen. What I wanted were angels, wise men or a Nativity scene (although preferably not fine art style as that’s not really my style either) but finding it proved almost impossible. In today’s consumer society, it seems the real reason for the season has become almost completely lost beneath the baubles and tinsel.
