Inspiring Thoughts herrherr.

Christmas break again. Christmas. Gifts. Simbang gabis. Aguinaldos. Parties. Lights. Carols. Red and Green. Money. Shopping. Gift wrappers. Toys. Greetings. Texts. Busy roads. Tips. Envelopes. Coins. Candies. Crunchy 20 pesos. Wishes. Santa. Pictures. Out of towns. Mano po lolo. Mano po tito. Songs. Kris Kringle. Mommy and Baby. Noche Buena. Diatabs. Nice Dress. Polo shirts. Formal attires. Fine dinner. Snow. White Christmas. Long distance calls. New phone. To do lists. To buy lists. Puto bumbong. Bibingka. BBQ. Lechon. Exchange gifts. Exchange food. Sweet thoughtful Cards. Ribbons. Scissors. Tape. Give aways. Drinking sessions. Pulutan. Yozi break. Starbucks Planner. Beach. Bikinis. Metro Manila Film Fest. Night Life.

There are numerous things we can think of when Christmas season is fast approaching.

Fun. Cheers. Togetherness. Love. Give. Take.

Don't we enjoy Christmas without these things? Think.
Many families spend their Christmas with nothing in their pockets. Nothing to give. Nothing to eat. Nothing to wear. But certainly, they find their way to enjoy this special occasion.
Just by being with the ones we love, more than enough right?

So this Christmas, try not to lugmok yourself with these "used to do" lists. Try to OPEN your HEART. Examine the real meaning of CHRISTMAS. And spend time with the real celebrant of this event. Who? WHO? Christ.

Not because our country is in deep shit of Arroyo, we can no longer enjoy Christmas.
I never want to hear anyone saying: "Nako Christmas ba? I can't feel it e. Parang di nagsasaya mga tao e" "Arroyo, potek ikaw lang masaya ngayong Pasko."

Instead, be thankful. Start reliving the TRUE meaning of Christmas.

LOVE, GIVE, PRAY, THANK, SURRENDER.

Well actually guys. I'm one of those nonbelievers of Christmas. But now. :)
