Ho...Ho...HO!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
as Santa always says..
haha, i cant remember when's the last time i celebrate christmas with my family.. Living in Singapore sure takes some sacrifice, and this is juz one of them... its my first christmas with family in the last 2 years, because last year i went back early becoz of training.. sigh...
anw..
Christmas... If we hear of it, straightaway most of us will start thinking of Santa Claus, Christmas tree, or even the presents below it.. But, this mindset should not be had among us.
We often forgot that Christmas is actually to commemorate the day when Jesus Christ was born into our world, to save every mankind, poor or rich. The day when the King of all Kings was born of the virgin Mary in the most humble place, the sheep stable...
But often due to the many commercialism of Christmas day, we only see christmas as the day when shops give a lot of unnecessary discounted items, in order to increase their profit.. New clothes, presents, and food to commemorate Christmas are consumed greatly every year, and many businessman sees this as opportunity. Maybe its true that Christmas is the day when people are encouraged to give, in order to build bonds with others. But i think that it is seen in the wrong way by a lot of people as the day to make a lot of bargain.. thanks to all the commercialism...
Seriously, i dont think God encourage us to do such thing.. u know, spend so much money on luxurious things, go out for dinner in expensive restaurant, etc.. The spirit of giving of christmas is actually making good deeds during christmas, such as donating money to the poor, not otherwise..
ok, enough of my opinion...
Aniwae, to all who even bother to read my blog.. i wish u all, christian or not, a MERRY CHRISTMAS!! May we show each other mercy, spirit of giving, and love, in this holy day of the year.
gotta sleep soon... dying already..
nitezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
