Its Christmas time again and we are allgetting ready for that special day. Thestreets of downtown are decorated inlights and the shops are anxiouslyawaiting the Christmas rush. TheHolidays are such a great time a year.We all spend hours searching for theperfect gift to give to our loved ones sothat they can provide us with the onething that makes Christmas worth it, asmile. That gift of a smile makes thesearch, the expense and the wrappingall worth it. Although gift giving seems tobe very commercialized, to me itrepresents the love that we have for oneanother. It is not about the amount thatyou spend on your loved one, rather it isthe time and thought that you put into thegift. We hope that this Christmas season,you not only spend your time and moneyon searching for the perfect gift, but youalso invest in the people that you love.
The advertisers and the publishers ofSea Island Scene, wish you and all thepeople you love a Merry Christmasand a Happy Holiday Season!
