TRUE CHRISTMAS

         

                 DECEMBER 24TH 2007
      I’m back home for Christmas. The feeling of the season Is what I love most about Christmas; the air is clear and sweet, the birds never sang so melodiously and I’m elated by it all.
Some people don’t know the essence of Christmas, they feel it’s just another over-hyped holiday but it really isn’t. It’s a time of sacrifice, a time to recognise sacrifice and a time to be new again. The world has never provided such hope in just the birth of a child yet Christmas offers that hope. It’s not about the day in the year, it’s about the occurrence of an incident at a point in time in history; an occurrence that has changed lives. I love this season and always will.
     One of the other good parts of Christmas is the food...the lovely food! The variety of meals to be eaten!! I think I’m over-smiling at the thought.
