Traditionally, 12 Days of Christmas was the opposite of how we think of it nowadays. It came after Christmas.

Advent season begins the fourth Sunday before Christmas, continues for a month — a feeling of expectation, praying,  singing hymns — waiting for the coming of Christ. Christmas Day, December 25, ushered in 12 days of celebration — beginning December 26 and ending January 6 with the Epiphany feast.

Now we think of 12 days as leading up to Christmas — Christmas music, visits with Santa, office parties, lotsa ads.

How about we think of it as 12 days to shop for gifts — to ponder (dull men like to ponder) and to find best deals? So many gifts to choose from now, more than ever before.
