Christmas

Christmas is a season that comes at the end of the year. We all grow up wrapped with our very own Christmas culture. Attuned with this ethos, everyone motions to the usual celebration of Christmas every year- gift giving, noche buenas, caroling, parties and reunions.

But as we get into the mood of festivity, we also remember the quintessence of Christmas. That Love is the driving force why we celebrate Christmas. We heard this over and over before that Jesus Christ came to earth to display the unconditional love of the Father. We simply could not remove the basic truth of this season. This is the kind of love that moves us to love and share to others.

Without this love, we could not connect to other people with genuinely love but rather our relationship is swathed with personal motives like "spongers". But since Jesus Christ came and told us to love one another… that relationship is important than the material things this world can offer.

Christmas reminds us that family and friends are the real treasures.
