Connecting
In an effort to feel more connected to Unitarian Universalism, we are going to celebrate Chalica this year. At first I thought it seemed a little hokey, but I am going to give it a try this year and see how it goes. This Chalica blog really lays out a thoughtful and meaningful way to celebrate the week. I am kind of excited for it and hope it helps the family understand the history and meaning of what it is to be a Unitarian Universalist. I will try to blog about it next week and all the activities we do to celebrate!

I love it.
I used to really roll my eyes at what I called "made up holidays" like Kwanzaa. But then I realized that any time that we set aside for celebration, remembrance, or prayer is a good thing. and that, frankly, all holidays are made up. It just depends on how far back you look.
I'm interested to see how it goes. Not sure what I think of Chalica yet, so I look forward to reading about your experience.
Do you know about the YouTube videos about Chalica? Just do a search on that term - there are three that I know of.
you can find lots of the youtube videos on the Chalica site - http://chalica.info
at last count there are 5 songs only and 7 videos by Jeff Liebman - one for each day!
