Christmas is the best time of the year to be a kid again.

This is my third Christmas as a mom. It’s a nice feeling to be able to see my son enjoying Christmas each year as he grows older. Hist first 2 most probably did not register much, and this year is the first time that he will be aware of the spirit of the season. Lights will be everywhere and people will be very nice to each other. Gifts will be given to him by well-wishers.

Back home, they will be having a blast too. ‘Tis the time to be partying and people will flock to our stores to avail of catering services and food packages. It’s the time for the bonus! People will have money to spend.

Amidst the gaiety, I remember the lessons taught to us by our elders. Christmas is the time to love: everyone, yourself, people you know and people you don’t know. Every festivity must come with the prayer for those who have less.

I can’t wait for Christmas.
