JENNI.FER MAHAL There was the Cookie Monster eating snowballs. the dough Raggedy Anne I made with a smeared face, the "Nutcracker" ornaments from Avon and the clothespin horses. There were the tin angels from Mexico, the tiny drummer boy from Guatemala and the Frosty from my elementary schooJ crafts fair. We had so many ornaments that the tree always looked filled without the need for colored balls of any kind. My first year of college, I rea.Uzed that some day my family might not all be together at Christmas time. So I bought my mother and sister an ornament each, so they would always have part of me on their trees. Tbey liked the Idea so much, it stuck. Every year, the three of us exchange new orriameots, and every ornament is a memory. There is the wooden plane Lara gave me when I was far away, the angel.ball mom bought me at a crafts fair, the New York taxicab with its load of presents and the tin cat bought after I got my twin kitties. There is the straw snowman, the · champagne bottle, the Raggedy Anne and Andy and the crocheted snowflakes.

But it does make sense to give a little more this time of year. . The difference between the haves and have-nots seems magnified during the holidays. Those without have to watch commercial after commercial telling their kids all the joy that's to be bad if they just owned this or that toy. They have to be reminded what they can't give the ones they love. Advertisements, movies and grocery stores remind many of the Christmas feast they can't afford. Whether it's been a bad year or a hard life, it can't be joyful to realize the holidays are coming and you're in for another two months of having all things you can't afford thrown in your face. Probably worse than the financial woes is the loneliness that can creep up while others plan for trips back home and holiday gatherings. It's no secret that this time of the year is the hardest for many. Sadness is made even more bitter when we are told constantly we should be happy. We're fortunate here that these problems are relatively few and far between. Huge Otristrnas trees are the norm, not the exception. Shops are filled with people who can afford to put presents beneath the Christmas tree and stuff the stockings that hang by the chimney (with care). But even here, amid so much wealth, fortune and luck. there are folks who aren't having a joyful holfday. For them, we're most fortunate that so many among us worlc to ease their pains. Doing so speaks to the ttue meaning of this time of year. COMMUNITY COMMENTARY The 12 days of Christmas giving By Weatherford Clayton T ired of hunting for Ouistmas presents? Stnt looking for meaningfuJ presents for your loved ones? Have I go1 a deal for you. It's an innovative idea. No money down, no chasing around the mall parking lot searching for a parking place. You might caU it a fresh approach to giving presents. It's wrapped with kindness and tied with the ribbon of love. It's based on time-tested principles that came to light thousands of years ago when a star appeared in the heavens. And It even comes with an owner's manual. A thick one. Here are a few simple girts you might give to yow loved ones that might slick with them long after the batteries ln the portable CD player gtve out. They might not be as tangible as four calling birds, three French hens and two turtle dovea, but they don't need a lot or blrd seed and take up decidedly less room In the house. So let the 12 days or Cluistmu begln. They start on Dec. 25 (the blrth of OirlsO and eod Jan. 8, the coming of the Mqt (Epiphany). On the first day of Cl1d1t:mu, give your family the gift of peace lo your home. Leave anger out of your responte1. Recogn.lu lh&t a.nger lJ aometblng we allow, not aometh.lng others make UI feel.

Turn away from anything that would offend your mother -your family is watching. On the sixth day Qf Oiristmas, listen. When they talk to you, stop what you're doing and pay attention. Respond with love. On the seventh day of Oiristmas, be a friend, but also a parent. Set guidelines 10 protect yow children. On the eighth day or Otristmas, be forgiving with family members. We all goof up, and we all need to forgive. On the ninth day of Olristmas, say -1 love you-to yow spouse and your children. The best day to say those words Is today. On the 10th day of Ouistmas, honestly ask forgiveness for things you dJd or said which hurt a loved one. There wjll never better time than now. On the 11th day of Ouistmas, give the gift of gratitude. Acknowledging yow loved one's efforts increues their confidence. Acknowledging God"a hand lncreuea our peace and perspective. .
