Christmas Memories...The anticipation of Christmas is all about memories. We don't realize it at the time but it's the seemingly little things that get stored in the cerebral cortex, not the "must have" plastic toy de' jour. The scent of a freshly cut tree, reflecting lights against the snow, church at midnight, the first taste of egg nog or a Johnny Mathis Christmas Carrol...these are the things that stick. Traditions may change over time, it's the emotional imprint that really matters. And of course, the joyful human yearning to experience it again one more time.
