What does the Yuletide mean to us?
Is it a time to be merry or a time to be sober and think about the coming new year?
Do we take time to actually love our spouse and show him/her how much we love and appreciate them?
Is it a time to solicit for gifts for our kids and loved ones while we forget about our needs and wants?
Is it a time to solicit for gifts for ourselves?
Is a time to pick fights to avoid responsibilities or spending quality time with our families?
Is it a time to eat the best of meals while those around us do not have a grain of rice to eat?
Is it a time to be frivolous and get drunk while partying with our loved ones or friends?
Is it a time we just want to forget about the struggles of the year and just have fun?
Is it a time to display wealth acquired during year?
Or is it a time to reflect on how the year has been so far and count your blessings and look forward to the future with greater purpose
Whatever Yuletide means to you ,show love not only to the have-nots but also to your loved ones,appreciate them for tolerating you through out the year and loving you for being you. As the reason for the season is unadulterated LOVE.
Merry Christmas everyone!
