Mike,

Your last two posts have been the most refreshing things I've read in a long time.  I too no longer celebrate the traditions of men and have taken some abuse from family members.  Interestingly enough though, my children understand completely.  I just wanted to encourage you to keep posting.  I celebrated the feasts for the last two years quietly in my house with just my kids and husband, but this year, G-d has revealed the same beliefs I have to a very dear friend.  And we will join our families to celebrate Passover together soon.  And I was there to encourage her through her first year not participating in Christmas.  It certainly is not easy to be set apart, but once you know better, there's no turning back.  Thank you for your courage to share.

Devoted to Him,

Corey Anne
