In Poland, Christmas Eve is a day first of fasting, then of feasting. Poland is a land of intriguing traditions, superstitions, and legends. Its people have always combined religion and family closeness at Christmas time. During Advent and, in some homes, on Christmas Eve, bees wax is poured on water, and fortunes are told from the shapes, which emerge. One tradition unique to Poland is the sharing the "oplatek", a thin wafer into which is pressed a holy picture. People once carried these oplatek from house to house to wish their neighbors a Merry Christmas. As each person shares pieces of the wafer with another person, they are supposed to forgive any hurts that have occurred over the past year and to wish the other person all the happiness in the coming year. On Christmas Eve, so important is the first star of the night that it has been given the affectionate name of "little star". On that night, all watch the sky anxiously, hoping to be the first to cry out, "The star!" The moment the star appears, people start eating. The table is always set with one extra seat in case a stranger, the Holy Spirit, or a deceased relative should appear to share the meal.
" Life is not a problem to be solved but a reality to be experienced! "
