Whether choosing Christmas cards<\/strong><\/a> for business or pleasure the process usually takes a lot of time. Should we choose what we like or choose what we consider to be safe? It can\u2019t have a Santa, or a tree or a bell. It can\u2019t say Merry Christmas. Do we always have to be politically correct?<\/p>\n

\"Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n

It seems that we spend so much time making sure that we don\u2019t offend anybody, that we forget the reason why we send Christmas cards in the first place. I have friends and business acquaintances from all different religions and backgrounds. I have received Christmas cards from many of them. Some say Merry Christmas, others says Season\u2019s Greetings. I\u2019ve have also received cards that say Happy Hanukah and Happy Kwanza. I can honestly say that I have never felt offended by any of them. If you want to send me holiday greetings, I will accept them graciously. I will be grateful that you took the time to think of me.<\/p>\n

I choose my holiday cards by what speaks to me. Something that makes me smile and often brings me back to a place of my childhood. So if you receive a Christmas card from me that depicts a tree covered in lights and says Merry Christmas, please do not take offense. I mean no harm. What I am really saying is enjoy your holidays, no matter how you celebrate them. I send you love, laughter, peace and joy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Whether choosing Christmas cards for business or pleasure the process usually takes a lot of time.
