These past few weeks  I have been noticing that people do not say "Merry Christmas" to each other anymore.  What is with that?  It has really been bothering me, so I have decided to step on top of my soapbox and voice my concern.  So...if you don't want to hear it...stop reading this post :) 
When I was little I remember going shopping with my mom during the holiday season and everyone that you would meet in the stores would say "Merry Christmas" or "enjoy your Christmas!"  I am sad to report that so far this season, not one person has said this to me without me saying it first.  What is happening to Christmas?  I feel like people are forgetting the reason for the season.  Are people so worried about being politically correct that they just are too scared to say anything at all?  I guess what I am asking is that everyone take a minute to remember what we are really celebrating...the birth of our Savior.  Next time you are in the grocery store line or out buying presents, please take a little bit of time and wish the person serving you a Merry Christmas.  Each time I have done it this year I have been given a smile  in return.  Please help bring back this lost sentiment.  And to everyone reading this post....."MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!"
