Yesterday , Dec 1 l thought of starting decorating the house with Christmas decors. It's kinda sad because kids are all away with their mom, And my other sister is not around too coz she's living with her husband. It's just me and my mom. But i said ,even if it's just us we still have to celebrate Christmas. Although Christmas for me should be everyday even if i don't have that much. I believe, you may not be able to feed the world, but at least you have fed at least one or two. And that makes them realize that the world is not bat at all.
I/we too are facing hardship right now, but I always believe God still will provide
The best gift i wish to receive is to be able to start working so i can help mommy with her/our financial crisis. Good help for us . Safety and good health for my sisters and her husband and children. Peace, happiness and good health for everybody. [em]wub[/??

When I was a kid, it was all about presents. I knew what Christmas was about, but who really thinks about Jesus when they're a child? To me, Christmas was Jesus. Santa was nice, and he brought nice toys, until I learned he wasn't real.
Today, Christmas is all about Jesus and being able to give to others to make them happy and see the smiles on their faces. Sure, I want a lot of things, but will I get it? It's doubtful peace will happen in my lifetime, though it would be nice if people would treat each other with respect. I would love for the wars to end. I don't see that happening either. So, I hope for no wars in the family and love will take the place of hate. Getting presents is nice, being loved is better.
Love came down to earth on that first Christmas day, long ago. It's the one thing we can give and still keep close to our hearts all year long.
Merry Christmas.

True. As a a child, i would look forward in helping my mom and dad decor the house. Then, we work together cook, bake and set the table for Christmas eve. The next day, we'd go out to the carnivals, watch Christmas shows and go tobreunions. Then, we would prepare food for Santa Clause too
As you grow old , things change. And i agree, Christmas is more about sharing

I hope you do get the work you seek. Its just my hubby and me for Christmas though a sister will visit for two days. I like the lights and playing Celtic carols on youtube. I generally make a batch of cookies and write a Yule short story and mail that to friends and family.
