I think that was a very harmless, well-meant greeting and hardly insensitive. But I agree it belongs more on Journeys than here. Maybe it should be reposted there?

It might be worth talking about the kinds of memories Christmas brings to so many of us. I bet to many of us it meant huge lit pushes trying to raise money. To others it meant a pre-New Year cleansing of Homes, meaning kicking people out on their own. To many of us it meant being far from our families and loved ones and unable to even tell them where we lived.

How many of you reconnect with your families over the holidays? Is it meaningful?
