CHRISTMAS TALK..

by : whencrissytalkstheylisten

All i want for christmas are those things which cannot be bought at the grocery store. I wish that everyone will knock some sense in each other's heads that Christimas isn't just all about Santa and exchanging gifts. It means a lot more precious and deeper than that. My birthday is a day before Christmas but I do look forward to the time where my relatives and friends gather all together to celebrate it with me on Christ's birthday and not with my own.

Christmas is the only day am looking forward to every year. Some of the Christmases that marked a huge impact in my life are the following :

A. X-mas 1989

- I was about six when I was proudly gleaming with happiness as me and my parents and my
shared a bounty Noche Buena. The first and the last that we ever shared the joyful season
as a "family". The only Christmas I can remember that I had my pictures taken with them.
NOTHING beats that unexplainable feeling when my parents shared LOVE during that day,
it was later on that I found out that something terrible is bound to happen. If only I had chosen
to wish for A COMPLETE FAMILY instead of the 64 pcs.crayons of CRAYOLA that CHRISTMAS.
If only... and it will be another story for me.

B. X-mas 1992

- The year that I learnt that Santa and his reindeers are not real. I woke up earlier than I should,
and unfortunately saw my mom and nanny hang our gifts to the socks placed at the top of the
window pane. I scratched my head knowing that forever, Santa will remain as a myth, and I
won't really see him riding his reindeers and take me with him to distribute gifts across the world.
I do believe in Santa, even after now. The constant reminder that I should do good everyday
in order to reap his gifts on Christmas day.

C. X-mas 2003

- The loneliest yet most romantic Christmas ever. I stowed away and was forced to rent a room in
a boarding house. My dad hadn't sent me my monthly allowance and I felt so broke and
completely loosing insanity. It was then that Ace surprised me with cakes and fruits and shared
them in the Cold frosty Christmas night. I realized that I spend that Christmas completely alone
with him. Our 2nd Christmas together!


Now, 10 days before Christmas, I thought of things that I want to give to my friends. But, I couldn't think of any.... I don't want to buy something out of the ordinary. I can be extra kind to them. hehehe.But, am still puzzled what Christmas gifts to hand them.

God had given Ace and I the perfect gift for this Christmas. Next year it will be a different thing, since we will have our bundle of joy to share it with. God knows the intentions of our hearts without us even saying it. He knows when to give and what to give, unlike us human who strive for perfection and appreciation. God gives because its what we deserves. When and how to give it, that's up to HIM=) But, am sure that one day all our wishes be our Christmas wishes will be laid infornt of us, HE will tap us in the shoulder and proudly say " go ahead my son /daughter,these are all yours,for being a great follower of me I send this for you with love"..
