ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS

          As the month of December came, we felt the cold breeze in the night, lanterns and shimmering lights everywhere. Yes! You know what these mean? Of course it is. It's the Essence of Christmas.
         The time of giving, forgiving, and loving each other. The time where we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The time that only thing in our mind is Jesus. Yes, Jesus. Well, let me ask you. What is truly meant by the Essence of Christmas? is it on material things or it is by giving and loving with all our hearts?
         Well Christmas is not about materialism. There's a saying, "God arrives like a thief on the night of Christmas." What do this mean? Well, our life today in the modern world is very different. We are more focus on material things rather than to live life with the presence of God. God symbolizes as the love, truth, way, and also life. That's why Christmas is very important. It's the only moment that we focus ourselves to the moment that we focus ourselves to the most important thing in our lives, our God.
