Hustle & Bustle

Christmas! One of the most celebrated times of the year. Complete with love, excitement, laughter, and don’t forget gift giving. We can hardly think of a Christmas without Gifts. A lot of people are looking forward for this season most especially because of the parties and gift giving.

The tradition of giving gifts in this season owes its origin to the Magi who came from the east of Jerusalem to greet the Babe in the manger with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. The Magi were wise men and their gifts were emblematic of tribute, worship and death - of Christ considered as King, God and the sacrificial Victim.

Speaking of gift giving. I already received some gifts from relatives, friends and loved ones and I also managed to be Santa Claus for a few friends. I still have undeliver gifts.I am also looking forward to our groups’party and exchange gifts on Thursday.

With so many things to gift with, most of us turn into a confused lot pondering over. Which gift would be appropriate? Which one is to be given to the near and dear ones and colleagues and…, well your head starts reeling.

We must also remember to thank the giver…for knowing us. Let them know that they are the greatest gift that they can ever give to anyone.  The time they spend to show us they care and love us means more than any material stuff that can ever purchase and give. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all, you know who you are.

Celebrate the Reason for the Season! Remember Christmas is about the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 
Let’s celebrate it with the true meaning of Christmas, that it’s more than just packages and foods.

How about you, what are the gifts you have in mind? Ah yes, Christmas time is here once again. With the hustle and bustle that the holidays brings…let’s remember to keep it real, simple and stress free!
