This post is inspired by Mica’s This is my December – Excited and Thankful post which I just read this morning.
Gifts, parties, food, these don’t excite me much during the Christmas season. There’s more to Christmas than the tangible things we see, touch and hear. There’s more to Christmas than the glittering lights of every building, the grandiose setup of Christmas trees, the lines of parols on the street and the Christmas songs looping on our play lists. Christmas, for me, is about being happy, appreciating life, thanking everyone, thanking God for the blessings, and showing love to everyone around you. Cliché but true.
I didn’t even start December with the best of luck. A pressing issue just came up at work but it’s not stopping me from still getting the happiness I deserve this season. A language proficiency exam, health issues and other matters try to get me bogged down but I’ll try to deal with them lightly. Again, Christmas should just be about happiness and thanksgiving.
