This is Boxing Day, in Canada...something from the English tradition at Christmas Time. It's a time to go out and to visit, with friends and family, and also to celebrate the Feast of St. Stephen, in the Christian Calendar. The carol Good King Wencelas celebrates this day.
There are always Boxing Day Sales in our region, of course!
With Christmas falling on a Saturday this year, and Boxing Day on a Sunday, this delivers for many business people a lovely extended weekend, a holiday moment to further celebrate with one's friends and family, and to extend the cheer to those on their own. It is a time of feasting and "expansiveness", full of light and bright.
Did you remember to read Dylan Thomas' classic, A Child's Christmas in Wales?
Enjoy!
