Christmas has always been a time for reunion, sometimes a time for forgiving and reconciliation. People used to prepare a lot for Christmas, we spend much, do much work, cook a lot during Christmas. We're so excited about how to decorate our house, about what food to prepare and how, about what clothes we'll wear, we're excited about almost everything! But mind you, in all the 1 Billion people here in this world, not all are excited, not all only worries about those material things, about beauty, generally they worry about how to run their lives normally, they sometimes don't feel it's Christmas, they worry if tomorrow and onwards on the next Christmas, they would still stand alive.
My friend, these persons I am refering are those who have cancers, people who's been a part of this panoramic world, and has contributed things in their own special way. They've been an inhabitant of this world but would soon fade as this malignant tumor destroy them piece by piece. We people of good health doesn't honestly know how would it exactly feel, but we know how hard it is.
Now, my stand is, can you tell me how would it be like if you were in their place, as if your Christmas is empty, with no colors at all. That you feel so senseless inside because you were slowly dying?...

Yeah, that would really be depressing unless i was able to accept it ahead of time. Like maybe i'll just make the most of the last Christmas i'd ever have. I guess people with cancer will most likely look away from Christmas because it adds up to their depression knowing people close to them worry with them too.
