THE ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

                   That time of year is near again. The time that many of us have been waiting for since the start of a new year. Christmas... that special time of the year when the Lord Jesus Christ was born. The time for giving. But Christmas isn't always about giving and receiving gift and cards and etc. But what is the true meaning of Christmas? I mean... What is the true essence of Christmas?

                    For me...  Christmas is about love. Caring about another over yourself, spending the time to do the little things to make the holiday special for loved ones. Christmas is also about togetherness. Being with the people you love, laughing, sharing a meal, sharing happy memories. To me... This is Christmas.... Being with your friends and your families.... It doesn't get any better than this....
