The Spirit Of Christmas
Merry Christmas to you!
The spirit of Christmas belongs to the act of giving and receiving. The open-heartedness of each other and the joy of sharing is what makes Christmas special. Lights and Christmas trees hold an exceptional value because they add beauty. And giving, above all “giving”, is the spirit of Christmas. Generosity; Giving something to someone is the most amazing part of Christmas. But the spirit of Christmas should last all year, not just one day.
We can give at other times of year too and not only at Christmas. We can make each other feel special on other days as well. No doubt, the value of giving becomes much more on the occasion of Christmas. But we should not let giving be something that happens only on Christmas. And giving is not just about fancy gifts. Giving can be anything big and small. Thanking someone for their presence in your life, or giving an honest compliment, writing a letter, or a hug, all are forms of giving.
Christmas is beautiful not just because of the things we decorate but also because of the way we touch each other’s hearts. The spirit of Christmas lies in the acts of care and kindness. It lies in the celebration of togetherness. We feel Christmas on Christmas but if we want to feel it on any other day, we should just do one thing; Giving.
