Others expect Christmas to be a season of giving and
receiving money or gifts. Others expect Christmas to be a season of seeing
colorful decorations and hearing lively noises around the streets. Others
expect Christmas to be a season of having presentable food around their tables.
Once these expectations are not met, others often utter phrases "Christmas is boring; I can't feel Christmas
this year."
Christmas is never boring; it is your idealistic
expectations that ruin your Christmas celebration. Sharing, valuing, praying -
These what should a Christmas be - a season of sharing things regardless of its
value; a season of valuing whatever food is presented on our tables; and a
season of praying for the world to heal. More importantly, we celebrate to
rejoice the birth of Jesus Christ.
May this Christmas remind us that regardless of our
situations in life, may we learn to be blessed enough to bless others. Merry
Christmas!
