There is a special day of the year that celebrates Jesus’ birthday and that day is December 25th.  This is a very special day for Christians worldwide.  Most Americans celebrate this day too.  The unfortunate thing about this special day is that it has become a consumer frenzy and a loss of what the true meaning of this day is.  The real reason for the season is JESUS…period.  When I was a child it was nice to get gifts and stuff.  It still is for those young ones and for those without.  But now that I’m older, it’s not so important to receive gifts anymore.  I can pretty much buy anything that I want myself and I do throughout the year.  I appreciate nice tokens or gestures of love through gifts, but to give a gift just because, I find is not so necessary for me anymore. 

There is a real cool video that is from family life that I want you to check out.  It definitely shares my sentiments.  What’s up with this whole ‘Holiday’ stuff anyway.  People are SO Politically Correct these days that they can’t even say “CHRISTmas” anymore.  That bothers me a whole lot and we need to speak up as a people and say that it’s CHRISTMAS and not just ‘x-mas’ or a ‘holiday’  Holiday parties and Holiday gifts and holiday this and that…AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!   Bring back CHRISTmas and bring back the REAL REASON FOR THE SEASON….JESUS!!  

Here is the link to the family life video.
