Description
I was on search for a picture for today. I walked through the streets. Christmas time .... lights, shine, peace, joy, pancakes, ..... and the pure Commerz..... everywhere I look . The gifts are getting bigger and more expensive * creepy *
So I looked through my own pictures and I have stopped here. I've done it in the summer. But I think this image is not dependent on the season and brings me closer to Christmas as each filled gift table .
I think of all the people, to those it not doing so well.....
and I think of a visit to a charitable institution these days to make myself useful.

Love and compassion are the best gifts than all! Very good and interesting capture!

good painting - yes too much 'Commerz' - but this is what makes 'The world go Round'

I hate the commercial aspects of Christmas, I know it drives the economy but it also drives people into personal debt too, It's a fantastic painting though and 'Adnate' translates from Latin to 'swim alongside' which I think is very apt if you plan to help those less fortunate over the Xmas period, I take my hat to you for such a wonderful thought Sonja. A lovely find and capture

Agreed... it isn't what it used to be, or is it that my eyes have opened with age? Beautiful Juli

Your right commercialism has over taken Christmas. Here in the US they start right after September. By the time Christmas arrives your burned out by it.

I like this urban art and I Thank you for your though of helping at a charitable institution. My wife cooks for days and on Thanksgiving and Christmas, we bring home cooked meals to elderly folks that are trapped in their condos because of health problems. Ich mag dieses urbane Kunst und ich danken Ihnen für Ihr aber helfen bei einer gemeinnützigen Institution. Meine Frau kocht für Tage und an Thanksgiving und Weihnachten bringen wir Hausmannskost für ältere Leute, die in ihren Eigentumswohnungen wegen gesundheitlicher Probleme gefangen sind.

Great capture and good observation I work at a food bank/thrift store and I see it on a daily basis we have 130 families signed up to get gifts for their children as well as a special Christmas food box (this Saturday)

The best way to forget your troubles is to help those with bigger problems. The Pilgrims outlawed Christmas when they came to America for exactly this reason. They felt the drinking and gift buying and parties denigrated the birth of their Messiah. An outstanding image. Der beste Weg, um Ihre Probleme zu vergessen ist es, diejenigen mit größeren Problemen zu helfen. Die Pilger verboten Weihnachten, wenn sie genau aus diesem Grund nach Amerika kam. Sie fühlten sich die Geschenk kauf und Trink und Parteien verunglimpft die Geburt ihres Messias. Ein hervorragendes Bild.

Ich könnte nun Romane zu deinen Gedanken und deinem Foto schreiben aber ich fasse mich kurz :) Weißt du wer all die Jahre das Weihnachtstor in unserer Stadt aufbaut? Das sind die alles verspotteten Harzer / 1 € Jobber. Mit ihren Kindern werden sie diesen Ort sicher nicht besuchen, leere Taschen und weinende Kinder kommen zu dieser Zeit nicht so gut. Eine mutige und schöne Idee was du da vorhast, ich wünsche dir alles Gute. Super Bild, das würde ich mir glatt an die Wand hängen.

A great photograph of this wonderful painting.I just wish that the diner could find another place for their sign. Christmas is big business,no doubt.

Dem Weihnachtswahn geben wir schon lange nicht mehr nach. In der Familie bekommt nur meine Mutter zu Weihnachten eine Kleinigkeit, wir Geschwister lassen das, es macht nur Stress. Ich bin froh, wenn der ganze Rummel wieder vorbei ist. Sehr cooles Foto. Ich mag seine Brille aus Verkehrsschildern. LOL
