Christmas, a Metaphoric Celebration

The structure of the unconscious . . . is that of metaphor . . . the part of language which carries the represen-tation of the relationships and processes which determine the quality of our lives. . . . [T]he typical production of the unconscious is metaphoric: dreams, poems, dances, songs and stories. ~John Grinder

Christmastide seems basically metaphoric, and that may be why it’s so meaningful, so deep. We allow ourselves to indulge in dreams, poems, dances, songs, and stories. ~jpc

We give thanks for our metaphoric celebrations. Namaste.
