No title.really…

Damn,days are so boring here.. With exam to "brighten" my life, homework to "cheer" me up, and revision which will definitely bring me "joy", life sure is "fun". Sigh. But looking on the birhgt side now, Christmas is coming!!!!! Time to go home to family and friends, have a load off from MMU, go carolling and till i nearly burst and then have a good nights sleep. Can’t wait to go back.

Thinkg about Christmas, why do we really celebrate Christmas? Is it really to celebrate the birth of Jesus,which is not even recorded that 25 December is His birthday here on earth, or is it another occasion to celebrate Christianity? Some people think of it as a marketing strategy, some as a family gathering. But for me,its a celebration of Christianity. If it really were to celebrate Jesus’s birthday,we would need Jesus here to blow the candles. But because Chrstianity is a relationship with God through Jesus, all the things that Jesus thought us will be remembered,hence the warm and joyous mood that comes every Christmas. Everyone will be kind and lend a helping hand as that is how Jesus is like. If it were just to celebrate Jesus’s birthday, then all you would do is sing Happy Birthday and thats it. Your still the same old you. But things can happen in Christmas that will touch lives, enter into peoples memories and stay part of their lives forever. So to me, Christmas is a celebration to remember that i am one,and Jesus to be thanked for accepting me.

    Hey! I so happened to be thinking about it too. Cause a few of my non-Christian friends celebrate Christmas like more ‘keng cham’ than we do. For some of them, it became like a ‘cultural’ thing for the family to exchange gifts or slaughter a turkey..but I was thinking if they really understood the true meaning of Christmas, it would mean so so much more than just presents, turkeys, Christmas trees and Santa Clauses.
