Christmas



This season is so jolly... or Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells...

Full of singing voices and jolly people came singing in front of our homes telling that Christmas is only days away. Gathering around the supermarket, buying foods for Christmas Eve is a common scene.

But what is the true essence of Christmas? Is it the exquisite foods, extravagant gifts or the money that you'll receive from your godparents? Or is it Santa who flew with eight reindeer and will slide down in your chimney?

Majority of your answers will be NO or MAYBE. I went to church on Christmas Eve and found it interesting that the church was full and there are only few vacant sits.Mostly there were outside enduring the cold temperature. Compared to those who attended the mass last year, the population has reduced.

As the church always say, coming to church, praying and forgiving are the essence of Christmas.
