Spirit of Christmas: Giving and Sharing

     We are about to celebrate a special season once again, a season of joy, of peace and of love. Christmas is near. The season where we celebrate the birth of Jesus. Jesus is the reason for the season. But what is the essence of Christmas?
     

     The spirit behind Christmas is that of giving and sharing. We must also spare time to reflect on the essence of the period which is the love of God for humanity. The essence of celebrating the Christmas season is not to have a house full of Christmas lights, Christmas tree and having gifts underneath it. Christmas basically means sharing what you have. We must show our appreciation, saying a simple thank you or a hug to our loved ones and forgiveness among others.

     We must remember that it is the thought that counts and that the love is the most important thing in our lives and in the world. We must bear in mind that Christmas is celebrated because of Jesus, the birth of Jesus. Remember, it's not only in Christmas that we must give and share but everyday.
