All the show and fun and gifts and kisses and hugs… all
compressed in one day (more or less).
Now, I suggest you check on your gifts. Check also on your
feelings, because that is what probably will last a while. Maybe a long while...
Our Christmas ritual, even though it has become more of a
commercial success day, it is much more than that. In ways nobody can explain,
it touches our heart and soul very deeply.
Personally, I was never so much into Christmas. That was until
I moved to another country and realized I would be all by myself in that day.
I am not sure what I felt… Was it fear? Was I feeling
abandoned? Loneliness? I decided to act so I’ve cooked a nice lunch and invited
a bunch of people I know more or less and… I felt so good!! It was a unique feeling
of belonging to a place I did not belong.
Many years later, I still remember that day although
nowadays I am always with people I love around me. I had the taste of the
spirit of Christmas, of that invisible feeling floating around us when that
time comes.
But then, why to wait? Why to wait until a certain date
comes? Just do it right now, with me and many other people around you.
A very merry ETERNAL Christmas!
