Christmas romantic

As well as embracing the Christian reasons and values of the holiday I am also a true Christmas romantic. For as long as I can remember I have cherished and enjoyed the build-up to and celebration of Christmas. And thus, inevitably, I find it hard to let go. With the tedium and crassness of everyday life looming ahead I long to remain in my bubble of season cheer.

Every year, however, the romantic retreats and a life-affirming realist emerges to rule supreme until darkness descends in November when - to the tunes of carols, cinnamon, oranges and wine - I will be cocooning again.
