Christmas 2012

©darrengarcia
Christmas is obviously a festive season. Gifts, buffets, money  what more can we ask for. The same things bother me however. Most people disregard the true essence of this day. We become clouded with materialistic ideals; (as a teen) we strive to beat our "collection" record last year.

I am NOT convincing anyone to observe solemnity. In fact, we ought to rejoice. Nevertheless, we must never forget that we take delight in Christ's birth and not on superficial and worldly treasures. This made me wonder, if you were to celebrate Christmas with only a can of sardines, would you still have that same jolly spirit as you have now? Hmm...(let me leave that question to you)

MERRY CHRISTMAS! May we all be endowed with gladness for the RIGHT reason.
