I love Christmas …

The thing about this year is that most people around me are losing the spirit of the season. Claiming it to be ordinary or to not even liking it, anymore and even … never did. They throw the season away b/c that’s all it is to them, another season, another time of year that passes by just the same. They throw it away w/o opening their hearts to it … but how can you love anything, if you don’t allow yourself to feel it …

I love Christmas, not b/c of the commercial hype, although I have to admit that it’s getting worse every year … but some part of me agrees to it … sometimes I also need that extra reminder, that extra ray of light to show me hope, that extra ornament that is just impossible to ignore to remind me that it is not just another time of year …
Some might call these people crazy … but at least they cared enough, at least they loved enough, at least they felt … or at least they want to feel …

The holiday season … the Christmas spirit … if you can’t feel it, there’s nothing on this earth that could help you understand … it’s not about the presents, it’s not about the ornaments, it’s not about who lights up their house most … it’s about family, it’s about coming together as one and making them feel like kings and queens, listened to during the year, special just as they are … it’s about bringing smiles and showing you care …

The Christmas spirit … you can smell it when you step outside, you breath it in and it flows through you vains bringing a smile to your face, knowing that it is not just another season … it’s the time of year that invites you on a journey that only a heart open to it can undertake … if you can’t feel it, nothing on this earth can help you understand …
