“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.
