What Christmas Is About

The celebration, the feasting, the fireworks and the gifts. These things come in our mind when Christmas is upon us. Little do we know that the true meaning of Christmas is lost away from us.
We have to prepare for Christmas, we buy decorations to put in our bomes, gifts for loved ones and food for noche buena. But are these material things really necessary to celebrate Christmas? No. We need not to prepare decorations, gifts nor food, we need to prepare ourselves, we need to repent and regret our sins, to recollect ourselves and for the real meaning of Christmas, to give praise to the birth of our Savior and to simply enjoy the company of our most loved family and friends.
Having a well spent Christmas doesn't mean spending much on decorations, foods and gifts, it's all about friends, family and most of all God.
