Christmas Is Coming!

Hello everyone! Check out my new blog template! It's called "The Night Before Christmas". I got this one at bloggerbuster and I love it! See the falling snow?

So, it's off to my favorite season of the year, Christmas! It's a year when the air is suddenly more cheerful and people find something to be happy and thankful for. We'll have lots of fun and laughter and then we'll pile up on memories.

I know that with many people, this season is not as merry as it should be. Take for example the tragedy of those typhoons that hit the Philippines (where I live) and Vietnam, the earthquake and tsunami in Samoa and Indonesia. We all see people with houses immersed in floods and rubbles. People lose their loved ones. All of these are really heartbreaking.

Christmas, however, is not all about the shallow joys of shopping, eating and receiving gifts. It's more than the lights in your houses and Christmas trees. It's a different kind of celebration, a kind of thanksgiving and praise. It's the time when Jesus decided to come down from the heavens and be human to save us all from our sins. Christmas is about love. This season, let's show our love by helping our fellows who are in need!

So, I'll be counting the days and feeling ever moment till that person's very special birthday: Jesus Christ. I know it's been more than 2,000 years but still, Jesus's birthday present is still not complete. Let's all chip in our worthy share by trying to be kinder and nicer inside and out!

Another thing...do you believe in Santa? I say, why not? The universe is full of endless possibilities! Yes! For Lorrainekid, Santa is real!!!

Christmas is coming! Jesus is here! A fun, meaningful, love-filled, heart-warming and genuine Christmas season to everyone!
