I'm of mixed emotions about the whole Christmas lights thing. I think one of the prettiest displays we ever did and probably the most religious was the simple battery powered candle in each window we did while we lived in Florida. I've used the multi-color c-7 and c-9 light sets on our other houses, mostly because that's what I remember as Christmas lights from when I was a kid. The one display that probably caused me to think about Christmas and the season occurred when I was stationed in Greece. It was not only the first time I was away from my family at Christmas but also the first time I spent Christmas out of a Northern area where snow could be expected. It was a simple string of lights thrown on the palm tree at the guard shack at the cantonment area of the Air Base, followed by that night listening to what ever the Greeks were doing at the chapel on base. I don't know if it was a call to prayer(that's what it reminded me of) or they were broadcasting the mass/liturgy on their PA system. It was sad that it reminded me I was away from friends and family, but comforting for the religious aspects. For some reason it made me think of Jeffery Archer's short story "The First Miracle", about a young boy who was in a foreign land with his family on the first Christmas and what happened to him.
