Christmas Abundance



                Most of the people often fail to realize what the month of December ought to bring us. Attributes to the uncertainty of people to what the breezy and cold air of December could be a lot of things but the message it relays is quite simple.


                Christmas holiday is composed of different decorations and it really is. We are accustomed this way of celebrating Christmas. Tangible things that symbolizes Christmas are Christmas tree, presents, Christmas lanterns, Christmas lights and Christmas bites. We put up our beautiful Christmas trees, we give gifts to our loved ones, Christmas lanterns we hang beneath, Christmas lights that flickers the entire night and Christmas bites we savor.


                We dissect “Christmas” and what we get is “Christ” and “mas” which means birth of Christ. Yes, Christmas is the celebration for the new-born king. We put up our decorations for this most joyous month of the year. However, have you ever wondered why December is a zephyr time? It’s time to live out the true essence of Christmas. The breezy and cold air brings us the chilling and trembling feelings. A hug, which is the medicine, keeps us warm. Telling us how important our loved ones are to our lives.


                So it’s not just about materials that make up Christmas. The aura of sharing and giving, forgiving, benignity to everybody,and giving jubilation and love are the most important. Of what I've stated above, hug is an example of the foundation of living out the true essence of Christmas. Which means behind this holiday is love, peace and joy. Christmas should be abounding in these.
