Christmas Ideals 2011 $8.99 “Ideals, a part of Christmastime family rituals for nearly seven decades, brings to mind — and brings to life — a Christmas full of warmth, hope, and love. The 67th annual Christmas issue serves as a touching reminder of the true meaning of the Christmas holiday. Heartwarming poetry and prose are joined by beautiful, full-color photographs and fine-art masterpieces. Beloved writers Pamela Kennedy and Michelle Medlock Adams share holiday memories and family traditions; poet Eileen Spinelli taps into the charm of the yuletide; and the original Christmas story is told through Bible passages accompanied by fine art. Kennedy also gives the history of a classic Christmas song, presented alongside sheet music. > As an added bonus, it will be packaged with Ideals Christmas Cookies, a 16-page collection of recipes for cookies perfect for the holidays.” |

Keep in Contact With True Merry Yule Cards, Not E-mail
Remember that line in the old song “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas,” written by Irving Berlin?
“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
With every Christmas card I write”
Christmas cards, the topic of Berlin’s song first sung in 1954, had no competition when the song was released because e-mail likely hadn’t even been dreamed of. Now, it seems that many people in today’s rushed world would rather sit down at the computer and type out an e-mail with a Christmas wish on it instead of taking the time to write out a thoughtful message in true Merry Christmas cards.
Cards vs. e-mail
- Cards cost more than e-mail
- Cards existed long before e-mail
- cards will be kept and e-mails erased
But, believe it or not, people still love receiving real live holiday cards through the mail. E-mail seems to have put a dent in the total number of cards people are sent each year, so this makes each card one receives by mail more special. There is something special about traditional Christmas that the electronic era may never replace.
A real, live Christmas card shows that you thought of the person specifically. It shows that you took the time and effort to select a card for them. The time it took to write a personalized message on the card and sign your name means even more. It’s not the financial investment in the card and postage that matters, it’s the emotional impact you will have on another’s life simply by reaching out to them at Christmas. Once you send your card to another, they may place it in a prominent place in their home for others to see. That can’t be said of an e-mail.
I think the holidays lend themselves to being more personal and intimate by sending real Merry Christmas cards. E-mail provides great advantages for quick communication in business and life. But, it just doesn’t seem a good way to foster Christmas spirit. Can you imagine ol’ Irving singing, “I’m dreaming of a White Christmas, with every e-mail I type out and send”?
Wouldn’t you say that sounds a little corny?
