Wish You All A Happy Holiday Season And A Prosperous New Year


Wish You All A Happy Holiday Season And A Prosperous New Year

points

December is a lazy month. In most places it is the holiday season, what with, Christmas, New Year's Day, Hanukkah, Ramadan and Kwanzaa all falling during the month. Psychologically also, it signifies a tremendous strain on the human body having slogged the whole year through. Just the thought of the beginning of December makes one feel like, oh my God, I have been working for eleven straight months, time to relax.

Even in the countries where it is not officially the holiday season, December is a lazy month. It is the anticipation of the end of the year. Another year coming to an end. Another year of one’s life. It is indeed a time to introspect what happened in the year gone by. Measure the achievements against the goals, set new goals, resolutions for self and the family and get ready for the New Year which is just around the corner.

Being part of the Xomba community has been the single most educational, inspiring, innovative, creative, fulfilling and profitable experience for me and therefore I made a simple card for the Xomba family, a tree rising out of abmox bearing branches made of users without a profile pic and fruits of success made of users with profile pics. (Another reason it is a good idea to have a picture or avatar in your profile, :)

Look the tree has eyes, a nose and a mouth also.

So then, folks, I wish you all a very happy holiday season and a very happy and prosperous New Year. Take time off, relax, enjoy, but don’t forget to write. All The Best.

Ingenious piece of art

taprial, that was a lovely card and so appropriate for the Xomba site. I am sure Nick will file it away somewhere as sentimental value.

Happy Xomba holidays to all Xomba members.

Are you sayin' I'm the bastard son of nick? And nick and myself produced the love child - Irving?

Or did Irving get it on with Abmox and produce me and nick?

Sick, sick mind taprial! :)

My Eyes Are on Xomba! Beware!

Tee hee - my eyes made it (actually the eyes of an original Dam Things Troll - even I'm not that ugly ...if a bit modest) onto this historic piece of Art. I'm adding my vote

You will never know wHATUP

All i am sure of is that Nick produced Abmox. Everything else is a question mark. The question mark next to you on the right hand side is Publius. The one immediately below you is bummba. Maybe they are also somehow involved in this production business of yours ;)

Happy Holidays. Thanks for the comment

Mia and mamamia

Thanks both of you, but you are being modest about your own work considering that both of you have authored some of the better content on the site.

WOW! A Xomba Holiday Card -- How Cool - Thank You...

Gosh, what a cool card. And, what a kind thing to do for all of us.

Don't I look grand in my picture? (just kidding)

Actually, what a grand membership of people. I love you all!

Thank you Taprial. Now, the rest of you, and me, need to assist in decorating Xomba for the holidays...

Happy Holiday from Jamaica.

That is a unique card. It sure emits the holiday spirit of family,friends and close kindredship. December is really a month when every one in Jamaica unwinds.It is a time of giving and sharing lots of love. As the month sets in we start to make plans for christmas by making preparation for our traditional christmas cake. I just love December After all it is my birth month.
Read and listen to poetry from Jamaica

Wow

Very moving, Taprial.

Xomba is a family and as we keep growing I hope we remain like we started out. Remembering our roots.

I'll be glad when the design is done so I can read more posts.

Take care!
