Precious Moments!
What is Christmas? well it is the time we are celebrating the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. Well it is indeed an overwhelming event! but why is that not everyone understand the real meaning of Christmas? For some it is the time/month that they are gonna have a lot of money! Time of nonstop party! and time for ceasefire! We cant blame them right? it's their culture. I've experienced different ways of celebrating Christmas. Last year i think was the most memorable Christmas i had, because i was in Singapore and i never celebrated it the way it should be because i have no time or i am having duty. It was memorable because that taught me a lot of things. First was i realized that i should be grateful to have an overseas father that cares for our future, I experienced what he is experiencing and i find it very hard and sad being away from us just to give us a quality life. Secondly it reminded me that even though you are away from your family there are people that will make you feel that you are not alone! And lastly i really felt the essence of Christmas even though i don't have bunch of presents and foods as long as i GAVE THANKS AND PRAISE to HIM everything will be alright! Yeah last year i ONLY prayed to GOD and it is Indeed a special Christmas! Now that i am back my Christmas is far different than last year because i had my family and friends beside me! If my Christmas before is a little bit off, now it was fun. I have attended back to back to back Christmas party and it was all splendid. My closest friends have our very first complete attendance Christmas party at afriques smallville, it was a fun filled dinner, really we doesn't care if we are making so much noise as long as were happy.As saying goes if you are with your friends you are not aware of others. Indeed right. we also have of sp. It was so damn crazy we are best friends for four years already but we never failed to surprise each and everyone. Our classroom also had our Class Christmas party! it was a traditional Christmas party because we had some crazy and funny games that all of us enjoyed (but our 2nd year party was better) we also have the traditional 50 pesos worth of gift hahahaah and it all sum up as FUN! And of course our family Christmas party, among all the Christmas party we had before this year's the bomb! all of my tita had fun my cousin from New Zealand went home and most especially we are Happy that's the bottom line there! Lastly our Christmas celebration (family) i was just a little bit disappointed because we we were expecting that my father will be with us this Christmas but he wasn't able to go home but its okay. we surprised our mother with a gift. It was a simple gift from us because we want to make her happy. I also gave my sister and my brother a perfume. But in spite of all the party i am disappointed because we were not be able to go church. And that Frustrates me so much because in Singapore i was able to attend a mass during Christmas. I am very sad because of that! But still i will try to be more faithful to HIM. So to end this up the real meaning of Christmas is not about having extravagant gifts, a lot of foods and the celebration but we should be reminded that we should treasure every moments we have with our LOVED ones because Jesus loves us and He wants us to share and give love! okay
