Yes, but then, I was young, naive, and guidable. It was only when I became more cynical... and more distrusting that I began to question. And I didn't stop until I had satisfactory answers - I was about nine or so - maybe ten, I forget. It matters little. Tsk. Taking me so long to become cynical - but then, I guess I used to believe what my parents told me... but now, now I am older and I know better. I guess that being "wiser" isn't always being "happier", since much of Christmas's "magic" has gone for me, and its not longer "special" as such.
