I think you are taking a wrong approach to "feeling Jewish." There is certainly no need to repress your childhood memories of Christian holidays. It is part of your life, and it was a happy time. It's worth remembering. I understand the lack of Jewish memories, too, because I'm there. But you live in a predominantly Christian culture. You're going to hear Christmas carols, see trees, and remember your childhood. There is no way you can help it, short of becoming a hermit from late October to January. Your husband has the right idea. Enjoy the musicality of the carols, and the beauty of the trees. Remember Christmas past without guilt.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00882672762281334997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-56152720231919598442010-12-15T17:58:19.915-05:002010-12-15T17:58:19.915-05:00I can see where it would be difficult to tell your...I can see where it would be difficult to tell your parents you aren't coming. In fact, I will be spending the Holiday with my husbands family. We will drive over on Friday, stay all night and spend Saturday with them. I probably won't have to do anything I wouldn't normally do here at home. Plus, I won't have to drive, so that will be nice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-20396579316800406702010-12-01T10:52:06.692-05:002010-12-01T10:52:06.692-05:00Dear "Friend"

The boundaries of the eruv could simply be due to who paid for it. If members of the conservative shul did not contribute to the creation or maintenance of the eruv, then the eruv's builders would not go out of their way to include it in the borders. <br /><br />I am not saying that this is how it should be, but it is probably just a reality of the situation.Karen Zampa Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03149649305577654051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-30921184608391101752010-11-17T23:14:58.406-05:002010-11-17T23:14:58.406-05:00Thanks!....Thanks!....Karen Zampa Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03149649305577654051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-27430819222236554982010-11-17T23:12:20.304-05:002010-11-17T23:12:20.304-05:00thanks Dena!thanks Dena!Karen Zampa Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03149649305577654051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-30449733717948565222010-11-17T20:39:10.130-05:002010-11-17T20:39:10.130-05:00Those are lovely!!!Those are lovely!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7406407842946398001.post-81044059002194869732010-11-12T10:21:47.003-05:002010-11-12T10:21:47.003-05:00ohshhhhmamas,

And I'm already beginning to feel the effects of the December dilemma this year, which was a bit easier last year when I was going through my conversion classes and living right down the street from my vibrant synagogue.

She just wanted everyone to be happy. She would have been devastated had she read this.<br /><br />It is a shame that her memory was besmirched by this inaccurate, hurtful and public speech.<br /><br />Better to use your "introspection" to think about why you distorted the truth so willfully, and why you felt it was necessary to commit "Lashon Hara" against Dorothy and her family the day after her death.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
