“The True Essence of Christmas”


          Christmas! Christmas! Christmas! This is the happiest season of the year because families were joined together. Whenever this time comes, all of us are very happy and excited. Do you know what the true essence of Christmas is??

       Christmas is all about love, sharing and forgiveness. Christmas is about love. Caring about another over yourself, spending the time to do the little things to make the holiday special for loved ones. It is neither only giving gift to everyone nor only for children. Christmas is about giving love to everyone around you and also for those who hated you. Christmas is about sharing what you have; it is about giving not receiving anything. It’s being kind to one and all too. Christmas is about forgiving those people who have done wrong to you. Christmas is also about togetherness. Being with the people you love, laughing and sharing a meal, sharing happy memories. It is also about the birth of the Man who saved us from death, Jesus Christ. 

              Christmas is a feast that is celebrated once a year. It’s a celebration of light and God's love in the middle of the darkest, coldest time of the year. Let us make that day wonderful.

"Equal Rights, Equal Opportunities"



             All of us were created by God equally. No one of us should be higher than other. Each of us has given similar rights. In our nation, they said it is a democratic country but now, people who have lots of money thought they were the highest ruled us. They manipulated us like a puppet, following whatever they wanted. Some treated the poor like animals. Only because they have power and money they just treat some of us like a dog in the street.
            In finding a job, some employers, when they saw a good looking man or woman they just hired it. They just hired it without inspecting if they are qualified. Also when you’re buying goods or things you need, when the seller saw a person who looks like richer and have more money than you, they will sell it to them even you were actually buying that one. That was a discrimination. They were not giving you your right and opportunity as an individual.
            Each human being was created the same. Let’s be fair to everyone. We must be equal to one another. No discrimination because we were given equal rights and equal opportunities.
