Many reasons certain days were linked from old to new, celebrations from faith to faith, old pagan beliefs, seasonal change have come down the years hence many spend time enjoying months of December/January in cheer.

No matter what one celebrates it is a time of year when most set aside differences and enjoy life, which is itself is a wonderful thing.

Thanks for 12 days fun insight, enjoyed your personal touch at the end in prose, yes the years tend to fly so making each one count all the more important.

Happy New Year Denise.
