Stories of celebration

They come out each Christmas, those very domestic angels, hanging above the fireplace with their gingerbread-tray and cake-mixing bowl, and the rotund Santa Claus between them.

In front of the bookshelves, my mother counts the Christmas cards, clicking on the small grey clicker-counter in her hand, a relic of the long-closed library. “One hundred and twenty four so far this year”, she says, proudly. She’ll head out soon to a family gathering, with all the generations there – her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren too. An everyday ritual, returning every year: a quiet celebration of another year’s passing.

What do you celebrate, in your family, your community, your business? And why? Where, when, and how? – how do you celebrate? What stories do those celebrations bring up? What memories do they bring back for you? What kinds of meaning?
