What is the True Essence of Christmas?

         We give and receive gifts on Christmas but do we really know the true essence of Christmas? We all know that Christmas is the season of joy, peace, love and forgiveness. What does Christmas means to you? Is it really just exchanging of gifts? or is it the wide smile you receive with a joyful greeting? Christmas is the time where family gets together and bond with each other.

         The essence of Christmas is not gifts, is certainly not goodies. Not even the things that you do. Not the decoration that makes your house look good. The essence of Christmas lies in the name of almighty Lord above. For he has the power to change the World. The true essence of Christmas is spreading love not only on loved ones but also on every single person around you. Christmas for me is being with my family, eating together, bonding with each other and filling the house with joy and love. The essence of Christmas is not measured on how tall the Christmas tree is, on how bright the lanterns are, and on how many food were prepared. Thus, the essence of Christmas is found on wide smiles of family members. On how they celebrate even just in a simple way. The true essence of Christmas is having a complete family, a complete family that celebrates a memorable day with a lot of love and joy.
