Excellent memories of Christmas past. A few years back I was working in a place that had a variety of races and religions and we all got along well. One individual was a muslim and a very smart and well spoken man. I wished him a Merry Christmas and initially he seemed to dislike my Christmas greeting. We discussed it and I asked him if he would be upset if he wished me well on Ramadan in what ever traditional way is called for and I took exception to it. He told me he would understand if that would upset me. I asked him if by giving a Ramadan greeting, he was insulting me or wishing bad things to me? He thought about it and told me that he would not be wishing bad for me. I then informed him that I would take it in the spirit it was given, even if it were not a Christian greeting and could he also take my greeting in the spirit given? Thinking about my statement, he then smiled and said, yes and wished me a very Merry Christmas. That was a very good day. Nothing bad about being nice.
