I will miss the Christmas Songs by Frankie Ford's 'White Christmas,' Elvis' 'Merry Christmas Baby,' Freddy Fender's 'Love Gets Better At Christmas,'and the likes. These are some of my boy-days memories at home and still strikes back when I'm home for Christmas. Christmas is full of fun in a Christian Home. It isn't about Santa(isn't it?), but about the oneness neighbors and old folks celebrate and give away ample joys and prayers. Strangers that stroll down our little town for fun fare and frolicking, merry-making and shopping which add to more fun-filled-spirits.
Back home, I will remember for a long time about the dough nuts and cakes; feast at the Church and plays about the Birth of Jesus played by Sunday school children; Carols and bonfires with old folks and newer friends; Give away what little or more we have in kitchens and moreover, the fasting to keep our world safe and warm. All these time during every Christmas this come and go,yet for a period.
As the new year will arrive in a few days, I shall keep aside the frenzied Christmas feelings that once burned inside during December. I shall tend to forget that feeling as I start to join my work and get myself busier and busier to keep myself abreast with the world, and the little things I have harbored within will begin to fade away with the advent of a new year. I feel it is necessary to be!
Past noon, sitting here still, a little pensive I wonder, "What if everyday of our lives could be a little fun-filled like that comes to us every Christmas?. " As the clock ticked away, I murmured, 'I will try to be,' as I let the sun delve in between the hillocks.
