Happy Kwanzaa

i celebrate Kwanzaa yearly and it is a cultural thing which uplifts the soul and spirits. the day after christmas is called Boxing day but for me it is the start of the african american acknowledgement of Kwanzaa which is a celebration of gifts and remembering family, friends and counting blessings and sharing the love. it is a powerful tradition that is felt by many family's across the USA. I celebrated Christmas and then i look forward to this particular time period. i bring gifts, books of group reading,fruit and share in family moments and remind myself of the past and the power and blessings of family members and the spirits that have guided and lead me to be blessed each and every day.
