Aiera will be taking a break for the Christmas holiday, and will resume posting either just before, or possibly just after, the dawn of 2008.

As has been the case for other holy seasons in the past, your website administrator would like to offer his greetings for the Christmas season, because that is an integral part of who he is, and he feels he would be remiss not to make mention of it. So please feel free, O Reader, to focus your attention on whichever particular category below most accurately describes you.

If you are Catholic: Christ is Born! Give Him Glory! May this be a holy, joyous, and warm season for you and your family, and a time for renewal of spirit and renewed faith in Christ, whose Incarnation we eagerly anticipate and at whose birth we shall rejoice. Hopefully you are able to enjoy a safe and happy Christmastime with friends and family, resisting the trappings of materialism that are so prevalent at this time of year, and may you be safe in any travels you are making during this time.

If you are Christian, but not Catholic: Christ is Born! May this be a holy, joyous, and warm season for you and your family, and a time for renewal of spirit and renewed faith in Christ, whose birth we eagerly anticipate and shall rejoice over! Hopefully you are able to enjoy a safe and happy Christmastime with friends and family, resisting the trappings of materialism that are so prevalent at this time of year, and may you be safe in any travels you are making during this time.

If you are religious, but not Christian: May this season be a time of rest and of spiritual growth for you, and may you continue securely in your journey of faith. Hopefully you are able to enjoy a safe and happy Christmastime with friends and family, resisting the trappings of materialism that are so prevalent at this time of year, and may you be safe in any travels you are making during this time.

If you are agnostic/atheist/secular: Hopefully you are able to enjoy a safe and happy Christmastime with friends and family, resisting the trappings of materialism that are so prevalent at this time of year, and may you be safe in any travels you are making during this time. May your heart and mind remain unclosed to the meaning that so many attach to this season.
