Celebrating Christmas

Jesus is said to be the core of every thing we do. It is Him, whom we should thanks for all the goodness we have in everyday and for the joy that He gave us, when He was once like us-HUMAN beings. There is nothing to compare of the sufferings and the might he showed to all of us and to the Most high.  Therefore, acknowledging His human presence with us is a must to be observed in any way we can and we could. There are many ways to do this.

Among those ways is this so widely known - Celebrating Christmas! This is a self-explanatory one, because, as we all know, this is the most celebrated time for Jesus Christ coming here in the world, just to show His love to all of us! Regardless of nationality, customs, inherent traditions, temperaments, and social classes we are in; all of us are in one thought to be in solidarity of giving honor to this Almighty, even through little yet real intention to give thanks. A Christmas lantern in our houses is one that little thing, I mean.

Especially us, Filipinos, we are so fun of this one. We love to hangChristmas Lanterns or decors, just to make our ambiance show the essence or spirit of Christmas. We saw most of the Filipinos houses hanging a for us to express more the value of our dear Jesus Christ spirit in our home. And this becomes our customary now every last month of the year. Thus, even through those, colorful and in different forms and sizes lanterns, we could say, that there is the love, passion and the spirit of Christmas that we are longing for.

Those lanterns became the cue of the annual celebration we used to have. We could just easily predict that or rather utter, that Christmas is coming once we start to see hanging Christmas Lanternsaround us. Normally the first who will get overwhelmed when Christmas is coming are the children, and once we can observe that, there is a great happiness within us. Because we know, that the great time is coming and the great time of showing and to in-act the goodness we have to reach other hands, is that near.

But we must always bear in our hearts and minds that Christmas, is not only about parties, but parties of sharing, loving, and forgiving and faith to the Almighty.
