Happy Christmas
If you believe in Christmas then this greeting is for you, otherwise, it is not. Well, I’m aware that some people out there don’t celebrate Christmas but at least everyone of us have something to thank this season for. We get long holiday breaks especially students, teachers and all who work in schools except the guards. For consumers we get many discounted goods from the shops. Well, of course there are also those who get bad news like the employers of Woolworth when their shops finally fold by first week of January 2009.
But I want to set aside all unhappy thoughts and focus only on the more positive ones. Christmas is definitely an important ocassion for me. It is a time when I and my cousins come together not really to celebrate Jesus’ birth but since it’s the time when most of us get long holidays and so it’s a perfect time for reunions.
Although I don’t believe that Jesus was born on Christmas day or December 25 but still the fact that He was born–no matter when it is–is indeed a reason to celebrate.
May everyone feel the essence of Christmas.
