Jamaican season greetings

Jamaican seasons greetings
Popular culture
25 December, 2012

This is such an emotional time of year. We can be happy, sad, overjoyed, grateful and downright ungrateful from the time we get up.

We think about the loved one’s we’ve lost and the kids who will go without on this day of family. We look at our presents and hide our disappointment or jump for joy because we got what we wanted.

Some of us may burst into tears because we expected more from the day than was delivered.




Christmas Day is steeped in tradition. Whether you are a Christian or Pagan, wherever you are around the globe there are things you do as standard.

For those of you who have it all or almost have it all, we like to discuss the true meaning of Christmas in the hopes of educating people we believe are not in the know. We diss those who believe it is Jesus’ birthday or diss those who don’t. On Twitter it’s become a new tradition.

Whatever your reason for this season, I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas time.
