Essence of Christmas

You'd Better Not Pout!
This is the message of Christmas: We are never alone
-Taylor Caldwell

The feel of the cool soothing air dew embraces my whole body and the sun’s rays that find its ways to the half-opened window forced my eyes to open. Yes, I was awakened by the gentle breeze that the morning offers me and I can’t really help myself in repeating this act. Maybe, this is what they’ll call December feels.
Speaking of this month, wherein Jesus Christ, the Great Redeemer was born, we’re all aware that it is the happiest season of the year. Christmas as we called it, celebrated every 25th day of December.

As we can see, colorful lanterns, shimmering lights, decorated Christmas trees and Belen’s are hanging everywhere. Well, it has been our tradition which symbolizes the spirit of Christmas. Some also says that Santa Claus is a part of it and maybe they really believe that Santa Claus really exists.
Nevertheless, Christmas is the season of joy, happiness, togetherness, hope and love. It is a time thanksgiving, loving sharing and forgiving one’s fellowman. So we must put Jesus Christ as the center of our life. Not only that but also bear this into your mind that Christmas is not just all about Santa Claus, giving gifts to the children, it is not just all about Rudolph, the red nose reindeer but it is all about Jesus Christ who was born in the Bethlehem.
