IS CHRISTMAS A COMMERCIAL ISSUE ONLY?

Well, actually it is not.  It is a lot more than a commercial festivity. Actually it is not a commercial festivity. It is a season to share and give, but people make it commercial.

The matter is what you can share and what you can give away. The matter is giving something to a person you love or to a person who means something to you or a person who you appreciate. It is an act of saying thanks for all you do for me, or thanks for what you mean to me or thanks for the love we share.

 We think too much about ourselves and we think too much about our problems. Well, this is the time when you think more about other beings.

The world is a mess and the main cause is our egotism. We care about ourselves and we do not care about other beings.  When we have a problem we think it is the worst, but guess what… THERE ARE MILLIONS IN A REAL BAD SITUATION! How many lost an arm or a foot? How many do not have anything to eat? Well, the list of questions could be really big, but it is not time to get negative, but positive and sharing.

The point is: DO WHAT YOUR HEART TELLS YOU THE BEST IS. FOLLOW YOUR HEART. SHOW APPRECIATION, LOVE, FRIENDSHIP, etc.

Complaining about the modern commercial point of view does not help. Understanding the main purpose helps. Then you follow the right path. Let’s remember this time is not just Xmas, but different holidays where you can show appreciation, love and friendship.

We all know Santa does not exist, but it has to be really nice to become Santa for someone once a year, no? Think about bringing a smile to someone you care. Isn’t that precious? Yeah, it is.

The idea is not spending hundreds of dollars, but to show that special feeling of appreciation toward other ones. A hug is ok, but a nice gift sends a stronger message to the other person. No just that… A gift stays with the other person longer, plus that person will remember you every time he/she sees it!

So, share in this special time of the year and bring a nice gift to someone special!
