Awakenings from Then ’til Now allows you to Embrace Your Past, Empower the Present, Enrich Your Future.
Welcome to Awakenings
Life IS history in the making. Every word we say, everything we do becomes history the moment it is said or done. Life void of memories leaves nothing but emptiness. For those who might consider history boring, think again: It is who we are, what we do and why we are here. We are certainly individuals in our thoughts and deeds but we all germinated from seeds planted long, long ago.

Why the Candy 'Cane'
Christmas Day has come and is almost gone. Only the evening left with time for leftovers along with the welcomed time for relaxation...before beginning the real cleanup! Looking upon the Christmas tree is a sight that has not yet been included along with all the other Christmas traditions...not only a great addition to the Christmas tree but also terrific accents for table decorations. Though
the full swing of Christmas day has reached its peak, there is a special crooked candy that remains an intricate part of remaining celebrations. In fact, it
can be found and enjoyed throughout the entire year. The shape may change with the season but the flavor is still the same...peppermint!
Synonymous with the Christmas season is the Christmas tree, door wreaths, Santa Claus, sleigh bells, gifts and of course, the CandyCane. For nearly 350 years, people have been eating this delicious peppermint candy with its unique crooked shape. With time the candy cane has become more versatile as people use them for more than just enjoying the cool, peppermint taste.
