I'm pretty sure no one can disagree that the end of December, which heralds Christmas, is a pretty joyful season. Be it in the shopping malls, or back at home, or even along the streets, Christmas is here to stay for these few weeks. So what exactly is it about Christmas that makes one happy? Receiving presents that you have been longing for? Meeting up with friends and family whom you haven't seen for ages? Taking a good break from the work that has been clinging on to you? Simply indulging in your sweet delicacies and logcakes? Camwhoring amidst the Christmas lightings along orchard road? Finding an opportunity to make new year resolutions? Sharing a quiet special moment with your loved one?
Or
Remembering that Christ is the reason for the season.
It might be a mishmash of all those reasons. Commercialisation working in tandem with the church cause, or could it be gradually stealing the latter's limelight? Maybe it really boils down to what the individual thinks is making him or her so happy in the days to come. This blog wouldn't try to brainwash anyone, regardless of your religious denomination, but i personally believe that it is also because of the true reason for this season that there are so many other reasons for us to cheer about, to rejoice over, to share the joy of the season with. When you find the true source of happiness, there you will find many springs many wells of happiness waiting to be uncovered. It's not too late to find out the true reason of Christmas. Share with your loved ones, spread to strangers, God Bless everyone this christmas!
