christmases

It was quite a long time since I have wrote my last post (Pampering....). I was still using blogger that time. This is my first time to write a post in multiply, but nonetheless, it was all the same. I have rested using internet the past days for some certain reasons (except from being bored, but not that much!sounds defensive...). But now, I'm back to utter my piece again, to say some words, to speak and be heard (though you won't really hear it, just read). What's my next thought? Ahm......(thinking)...............(looking at the clouds even if there's none)....Ah!!
Christmas presents. Carolers. Christmas trees and lights. Christmas Parties. Those are just some of the manifestation of Christmas. But the past days, I haven't heard carolers sang their songs in front of our house, I haven't seen glittering lights that entangles the Christmas trees and those that outshone the streets on dark nights, and abovemost (and the saddest part of all), I haven't received any present yet (but it's ok, I understand). The downfall speaks. Is this all the outcome? Are there more coming? Will Christmas finally be removed on the calendar (Is it even possible?)?Will the spirit vanish it's way? What a spoiler is it....
Trying to think about the reason that never speak, and the hidden doubts behind every unfold. But I came out with nothing on me, no ideas at all.
Economic Recession on United States has been pointed as the reason. But why is the blame put on them? Yes, it can be possible because they are a powerful country and we are a third world country. So any failure that they faced and they will be facing, we will surely take our part on it. Going back, why does the blame be put on them? We should be responsible with our own problem. We shouldn't blame them all the time.
Few days from now, it will be Christmas day. How would we celebrate it this time? The usual way? Or the other way?
Have we think of those people, especially the kids who had never tried to celebrate Christmas all their lives? Have we think of their situation?
Christmas on it's true sense is something wider than we think it is. Even myself, doesn't have that concrete idea of the REAL spirit of Christmas. We should try to find it out. We should broaden our limits and set our sights farther than before.
We have few days left to prove our worth and change the usual way this season runs for every people. If you fail to do it this time, just if you fail, you have more Christmas ahead of you. But I'm telling you, the best time to start is NOW.
Christmas trees and lights, presents, and parties are just emblem of the celebration. What matters most is the celebration itself and the real spirit attached on it.
Is it really the recession or is it really US?
Now, you think!
