I put up some decorations on the Christmas tree last night! It seems hard not to hum some Christmas song while decorating the Christmas tree! hehe. Oh boy! I'm excited for Christmas. Haha.
The other day, I heard a conversation on the radio about the real meaning of Christmas, and they discussed about how people nowadays don't even remember what we are really celebrating during this particular date. Notice how people greet each other with "Marry Xmas!" or "Happy Holidays!", that alone is a sign that people is forgetting the real essence of Christmas.
So what is the real meaning of Christmas? It's about Jesus Christ, our savior, being born, it's about our creator who chose to live among us to bring us truth.
For me, Christmas is remembering how a human like us of little faith was saved and loved. Christmas isn't about having an obligation to give out gifts, or having a feast on your table, or having a party or any grand celebration. It's about rejoicing for the precious and eternal gift that was given to us. So really... you don't need a thousand cash on your pocket or receiving wonderful gifts. It's about acknowledging your blessings and sharing even a bit of what was given to you.
So what does Christmas mean to you? ...^^
