TRUE CHRISTMAS

It is not about the number of chickens you kill, neither is it about the number of beers you take. It has nothing to do with the number of parties you “rock”, same way the number of heads you turn with your pretty hair and beautiful dress remains irrelevant. Even though Christmas seems “impossible” (to some people) without these things, we have to remember the reason for the season. 

The baby we celebrate this day was already a king before he was born (talk about swag!), he came down on earth to bring peace to all men (not only to the rich, but also to the poor). Of course, he had a choice to stay back and watch over us from heaven but he decided to come to the earth like every normal baby just to show you that it is possible to live a just life even in this present age.

As you go about eating, drinking and celebrating today do remember that there are those who cannot afford the fun you are having either because they are poor or because they have no other choice because they’ve been on admission in the hospital for a while. To them Christmas may have no meaning because it is pretty hard to see the joy in the midst of so much suffering and pain but that’s where you come in. you are happy and able to celebrate this period with joy why not share some happiness with them. You don’t have to do the extraordinary because it’s the little things that count. It may be in your place of work or even on your street. You may be a doctor in a hospital, going personally to wish some of your patients a merry Christmas, sharing ice cream and even taking pictures with them will go a long way to give them that beautiful smile.

The true definition of Christmas is seen in that smile you are able to bring to the face of someone who hasn’t had the course to smile in a long while. We are all our brothers (and sisters) keeper, let’s show love to one another just because.

In the spirit of the season, yours truly is wishing you all a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!.... Put a smile on someone’s face today like this ;) :). Let me know how you spent your Christmas too, please share your experience here.
