Halloween is When We Can be Kids Again

May be I will surprise you, but I do not like Halloween. Trying to be less critical I'd say, I do not like the way Halloween is seen and celebrated here, in the US. Why? Just because it is too much. Too much death and blood, too many living dead zombies, severed heads and legs, monsters, witches. And of course, too much advertising, and commercialization around. Too much is too much. I am a sensitive person and have kids, you know.

Though, Halloween can be a nice family holiday or a great occasion to have fun at a party with your friends. It is actually an ancient holiday with possible pagan or even Christian roots. Well, anyway it is a nice occasion for our kids to hang around dressed-up. And needless to say, adults love it too. We can be kids again and it is priceless.

Here is my Halloween selection: beautiful and fun accessories which do not make us think of decomposition, horrors and death. It is all about fun, beauty and life.
