To start with why wait for Xmas to give? Should we not be giving at all times in some way or another? Giving does not have to be a tangible gift, it could be a smile, a hug, a kind deed etc.
Christmas for many seems to be a license to drink as much as possible to show that you are happy and that you are celebrating Christmas in an insanely jovial spirit.
Christmas has become so commercially viable that even the Christians partake in the festivities and only going to church to make sure that others see them there.
If this was the normal way to conduct one because of someone’s birthday, then should we not be partying and getting drunk everyday, because we should be celebrating what Jesus did for us on that cross of salvation everyday.
Christmas is a time to reflect on who we really are, and how we can use our expertise to help others in even the smallest way. It is a time to forgive and forget our transgressions and those done to us.
The amount of time that is wasted looking back does not allow us to look forward to all the wonders that are ahead of us.
It is a time to move forward and stop looking back at the past because it is gone.
The Past is history
The Future is a Myth
The day, Today, is now, a gift, the moment we are living in. That is why it is called the Present.
Be thankful for this moment.
