Christmas once more and I'm feeling good. Top of the world like the way I should- Naahh not really. Just some words from a Christmas carol playing on the radio the other day. Yes its that time of the year again. Light are up on the houses, malls are decorated, radios are playing the songs, Christmas sales and shopping, Christmas food, Christmas alcohol blah blah blah. Everywhere you go you can see it. You just cant avoid it even if you want to. So do what I do. Just go with the flow. Everything everywhere around you has the world Christmas in it. Seriously!! It can be a bit exciting and overwhelming at the same time if your seeing it for the first time.
Among all the lights and glitter, the other day I was just wondering do some of the people even know that somewhere in there, Christmas is about Jesus. We celebrate it because he was born on that day or so they say. Whats is the connection between christmas lights on sale and Jesus. Or for that matter eggnog and clothes and Jesus. Well I don't know. If someone out there does please do tell me.
All this christmassy stuff is all well and good. It makes it fun. But we shouldn't forget the essence of what Christmas is all about. Jesus. Its not just about who has the best decorated house on the street or going for dances and stuff. Its about something much much more. Give it a thought .

So true it's easy to lose the true spirit of Christmas! People say Happy Holidays to be politically correct but Christmas is Jesus' birthday and we can't forget! That being said like any birthday, we celebrate! Hence the lights, egg nog, dancing, family time! Birthday parties bring loved ones together and I think Jesus would approve! Just don't go overboard with the material things, memories and good times are what matter!
