When I was a kid, I always get excited when Christmas time is near. Until now that I am older, I am still like a kid looking forward for the fast approaching Christmas time. Christmas is always a season of love, joy and hope for me. Despite the difficulties and hardships around me, when it’s Christmas, I only see happiness and love even for a short moment. It’s not the gifts, Christmas hampers and Christmas trees that makes Christmas a wonderful season. Rather, it is the peace and unity of the family and friends that makes the season meaningful to me. Christmas is a time of reconciliation, Sins are forgiven and old woes are forgotten to give way to the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Christmas is a time that is celebrated by all the people in the world. Despite the differences of religion, Christmas is recognized by everyone. It is an event that is not foreign to all of us because it is widely spread and announced to all as it is fast approaching. It is a not only for the Christians but for all.
The season of Christmas is also a time for vacation and getting along with our loved ones. That is why I am always excited because Christmas time is also our family reunion. My siblings would always come home from other places where they work and take their breaks to celebrate Christmas time with us. We would then cook delicious food for Christmas Eve, buy Christmas hampers to share, give Christmas sweets to the kids, go to church for masses and listen to the Christmas carols.
Every year, my Christmas history is still the same. It is still the most beautiful season of all. Despite the changes of the times, nothing can replace Christmas as my favorite time of the year.
