ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

christmas…


When you hear the word Christmas, the first things would come out to your mind would be exchanging gifts, non-stop parties and mouthwatering lushes. But all of these things are not really the essence of Christmas. So what is really the essence of Christmas?
          As the days passes by, Christmas is also getting nearer. I can feel Christmas as I walked out and see those beautiful lights outside the houses and those big Christmas trees around the city. Students are also excited for their Christmas programs/ parties in school as well for more/ less two weeks’ vacation. You can also see children and old ages along the highway walking and going to every house to have their carols. Fireworks are also there. People also are used to have their “Noche Buena” when it’s already twelve on the “Bisperas ng Pasko” But let us not forget why there is Christmas. December 25, Christmas, is the day when Jesus Christ was born. And the essence of Christmas for me is giving and sharing your blessings w/o expecting any replacement. And Christmas is not just for those who are rich. Christmas is for everyone. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any money for “Noche Buena”, as long as you are w/ your family and having Jesus w/ your hearts.
         
     Christmas is something that we must really celebrate. But let us all remember what really the essence of it. And let us thank God for all the blessings that he is giving to us. And let us thank God for sending Jesus Christ here in earth to save us from our sins. We must all treasure it.
