Christmas is just around the corner, and it is the happiest holiday of the year. We celebrate Christmas here in the Philippines with a bang beginning on the 16th of December till the 1st week of January.
Yes folks, Christmas means to me. It is a time for every family to be with one another, a time to share, give love and peace to each and everyone, a time to be happy and joy because it is the birth and coming of our savior Jesus Christ. Let's give him thanks and praise for he is the one that redeem us.
There's a saying that goes during Christmas time, "It is better to give than to receive". Well, for me this saying is of great importance because it is a Christmas way of life, but now a days that life is so hard and prices are sky high, few, and some are practicing it already. But me as I've said if I have the means I will surely give something to everyone known to me specially the needy.
Christmas is also a month of gift giving and sharing with one another. I am looking forward with the coming of the 9 dawn masses which starts the Christmas season here in the Philippines. People from all walks of life are are going to mass in the early hours of day. It's very enjoyable and interesting even though we are still very sleepy during those hours. On the day of Christmas or have the called Noche Buena and foods abound in each and everyone's table and during Media Noche.
Well, friends the essence of Christmas for me are still so many and I can not enumerate them one on one already because it will take us till Christmas day, so Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each and everyone!!!
