::Christmas Holiday Spirit

Wednesday, December 08, 2004

Simbang Gabi is fast approaching and yet, I have not decorated the house in preparation for the Christmas Holidays. If some teen-agers from a nearby Parish Church did not visited us this evening and sang some Christmas carols, I wouldn't noticed at all that Christmas Day is two weeks away!

I'm still undecided whether we should rush ourselves to the mall and buy what those rich mall owners want us to get from their store to display in our house. My children even asked me if we shall decorate the house or not but, I told them is there a valid reason why we should celebrate it? In my opinion, I would rather buy some gift certificates and give them away than spending lots of money for Christmas decors. It's no longer practical to show off some extravagance, let's admit it, very few people nowadays remember the real spirit of Christmas and why we are celebrating it.

If my eldest son is only with us, we might celebrate Christmas. It would be a pleasure to see all my children get-together...
