Little Blue Fox. - Hope is important.

Hope is important.

 
What things do Christmas mean to you?

I am worried I am a really big hypocrite because I really like Christmas, but I am not a Christian at-all.

I am really happy all my family are really close and together, and alsolots of friends come back to Ashford again. I like making Christmas cards and presents, and trying to make everyone a tiny bit happy. It is really cool everyone is really hopeful and close and together, but it is not a Christian thing at-all anyone, I think.

I get really freaked out people buy lots too much food and *zillions* of presents - it is pretty greedy, I think.

Also, I pray on Christmas eve - it is the only time I pray, but I am notsure who I am praying to...I am really grateful for this year and all the things I have. I want to say thank you, but I do not know who to. I am so lucky, mostly, I think. Please does it make sense at-all?

It hurts too much not to try.
I will see you in another life when we are both cats.

Everyone is (hypocritical) to a certain extent.

But you're not (hypocritical) for liking Christmas and not being Christian. Because i don't think that it's just a Christian thing, i think it's also about people, animals and trees loving each other.

Maeby - Marry me?

Marry me?

 
Christmas, to me, is very dull.

There's no public transport, so we're stuck in the back of beyond and usually end up going on long, freezing walks on the canal. Which end up with us all at a pub as nowhere else is open.

I don't have any family, aside from the immediate ones, so that means not a lot goes on.

And then I go to choir. Yay.
Ping!

Christmas is never what you hope it will be. Every year, my family has argued. Last year, I worked, and probably had the most relaxed Christmas I've ever had. I don't put more emphasis on it as special than any other day, because if I do, I'm more disappointed when something goes wrong. But I think it's OK to like Christmas if you're not Christian, it's a time to be with family and celebrate life, even if you don't believe that life is something you'd not have without the birth of Jesus...

Jimmy: Holy sh*t everything's Barry.
Steve-Dave: Everything's better!
Puffalump: Barrier
Steve-Dave: The Barryest it's ever been
Jimmy: I can't wait for more "Important Barry and changes"
Steve-Dave: Well there will be some Barry and changes coming soon, because we need more donations. It no longer just takes £10 a year to help Barry survive
Steve-Dave: It takes like... £13
Steve-Dave: Barry has to walk 5 metres to his car every day... just to go to work and earn money for DVDs and comic books
Steve-Dave: His eyesight is so bad... that he has to wear glasses. Stylish rimless glasses which cost €250
Steve-Dave: His living space is so cramped... that h had to put his workout bench in the garage meaning he doesn't really use it any more
Steve-Dave: But for just €13 a year... You can help Barry afford a DVD that he heard was good but has been out for a while so it's not as expensive as new DVDs
Steve-Dave: Please... Give generously... And help save this poor man's DVD shelf from not being completely full because it just looks weird when it's nearly full. I mean, when it's half full, that's fine. But when there's only a few gaps left... it just looks kinda sad.... y'know
Steve-Dave: Thank you
Rayanne Graff: It scares me when people refer to themselves in the third person.
Steve-Dave: It scares Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq. too
Steve-Dave: Like my Grandfather, Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XII Esq. always said: "Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq., Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XII esq. gets scared when people refer to themselves in the third person, and Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq., Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XII esq. promises to never do that"
Steve-Dave: And like my twin brother, Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV.5 esq. (or Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq. for short) says: "Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq., Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV.5 esq. doesn't like when people refer to themselves in the third person. You and Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV.5 esq. must have gotten that from our grandfather, Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XII esq."
Rayanne Graff: You nerds crack me up.
Steve-Dave: Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XII esq., Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV.5 esq. and Professor Barrington Cornelius Smashathing XIV esq. all try our best
Rayanne Graff: ... in the pants department.
