We would like to put politics in the closet and shut the door from now until the New Year. That may be impossible, but it leaves an opening for something different:

Your thoughts on this glorious holiday season, finally unleashed from the constraints of COVID-19.

How do you celebrate?

How did you celebrate in the Covid years?

What’s important to you at Christmas?

And so much more.

We would like to print your thoughts in this space. Please keep them brief, and follow the guidelines we use for our Thanksgiving “What makes you thankful?” question:

Please express yourself fully but concisely—less can be more, especially when space is tight.

You may email your comments to editor@gazettejournal.net; fax them to 804-693-3101; mail to P.O. Box 2060, Gloucester, Va. 23061; or drop them off at either our Gloucester office (6625 Main Street) or Mathews office (28 Court Street). For more details, call 804-693-3101.
