True Meaning of Christmas

          "Time sure flies when your'e having fun."
          It's really unbelievable that we've already entered the month of December, it feels like we've just started the -ber months. People are getting fired up because in a few more days, it will soon be Christmas then the new start of the year.
          Christmas is approaching faster than we've expected. It's just around the corner. I was so caught up with so many responsibilities at home and at school that I didn't noticed that November just ended. Maybe I need to relax more.
           As the month of September comes, we Filipinos already start preparing for Christmas that''s why we are known for having the longest Christmas holiday. Sign of Christmas begins from the cool breeze we feel, we hear Christmas jingles played on the radio and decorations are everywhere. This is not bad but from the walk of life since typhoon Yolanda devastated the islands of Visayas, it is not necessary to celebrate Christmas in extravagance. We have to share the feelings of the victims and survivors by changing the luxurious way to simple one. It is most important to pray for assistance for these poor people, to share with them what we have especially food, clothing and medical needs. For as a follower of Christ, how do you think of keeping with you what you have while you know others are suffering and dying.

          This is what Christmas should be- loving and caring for other people especially the less fortunate. For this way, I'm pretty sure Jesus Christ will be pleased to come this advent season.

           Merry Christmas everyone!
