The spirit of this season as a Target Ad and others on TV are touting can be on of L-O-V-E. Another theme is M-O-M and  C-H-I-L-D which of course includes on some level D-A-D and thus F-A-M-I-L-Y. Many add to that the divine or G-D and others do not but  often speak of SPIRIT and if not that, COMMUNITY and NATURE. So what are you connecting with this season of winter wonders and gatherings?
