Christmas – A Celebration commemorating the Birth of CHRIST.
The 1st Christmas was the day when God became flesh and dwelt physically amongst men
– God proclaimed His goodwill towards men.
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and
they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated,
“God with us.” Matthew 1:23
The Gift of eternal life as encapsulated in John 3:16 – For
God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son, that whoever
believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.
Christmas is one of the most looked forward to (celebrations and rest
days!) and exciting times of the year. The heart and mind gets brimmed
over with joyfulness with the thoughts of Christmas. There’s
the gathering among relatives and friends not forgetting the traditions
among which's the giving of presents.
It is indeed fun to give and receive gifts, provided that it does not
put a strain on the budget for the giver. Many a times, it is not so
much of the cost of the gifts but the thoughts behind it that make the
most impact.
Revisiting and reflecting through some contemplative quotes on gifts:
*Every gift from a friend is a wish for your happiness - Richard Bach
*You can give without loving, but you can never love without giving -
Author Unknown
*May no gift be too small to give, nor too simple to receive, which is
wrapped in thoughtfulness, and tied with love - L.O. Baird
*Gift exchanges make love last longer - Swedish Proverb
*The heart of the giver makes the gift dear and precious –
Martin Luther

Did anyone else parents ever give them a birthday present on christmas?
My birthday is close to christmas, it's december 21st and my parents always gave me 2 or 3 presents and whatever I get for Christmas is for my birthday too, I always hated that, I have 4 siblings so we didn't get too much but my youngest two brother always got the most presents though, I guess because they were younger. I think I got cheated because they gave all my other siblings a present for their birthday and then some for Christmas, while I didn't get anything for my birthday but I did get christmas present. Did this happen to anyone else? I'm 18 now, so it doesn't bother me but I used to hate it when I was a kid.

So I was talking to my cousin lets call him H and we joke around calling eachother names as a laugh, we both joke and since im not a skinny girl he calls me skinny toppositeite of what i am and i call him fat you get the idea? so then my other cousin Lets call her S she said " he's not fat " and I said " were both joking " then she said " oh I was gonna say if hes really fat your really skinny calling me really fat now, hey i get this alot so i just sit there in silence for a moment and cousin T starts getting in on the joke calling me fat. After that happens since i love robbert pattinson, when my cousin lets call her M she starts saying " Jacobs really fit " and My cousin S says " yeah edwards ugly " and i wanted to get in on it to so i said " ah shutup S hes not " I think I hesitated on the word shutup and it might of came across wrong...i was nervous. So she said " DON'T TELL ME SHUT UP " and makes a face. Of course I feel humiliated and go outside in the car to cry. My mom catches me and makes a nasty face at stephanie she smiles and gets into her car to go home. Then My Aunt turns on us and haven'tent talked for 3 months now.Now theres another story but Il just give you little details, you don't want to sit here all night do ya?So Few weeks later Im on the computer, my cousin H is playing outside with my cousin T, Im on the computer playing this building game, when they come back in my cousin T deletes all my work and yeah I get angry and emotional. So then my cousins and my other aunt fall out with me. They go to my Aunts house the one ive already fallen out with and i was at my nans, they call my cousin H, i go to the other phone and listen to their conversationion, they were mocking me, and saying things like " did they say anything about us when we went? " So the next day, my aunt says to my Nan, " yeah Emma that's me didn't look happy when I gave her that gift the other day " so I apologized for that and then we were all friends again. Well sort of...So yeah sorry that was a long story but every now and then my cousins M and T go out with H and S, few days ago they went to london and didn't invite me, so whatever. But I feel really lonely, im gonna be on my own for christmas and that just really upsets me, i want a family. It will just be me and my nan and my mum,I haven't had a christmas without family. My cousin M and T go up to london to there grans for christmas. I love christmas and this is really bugging me, whats your opinions??Thanks i know that was alot of reading
Cute christmas gift for my boyfriend? what do you think?
it's early i know but i love to plan things out. i was going to do a twelve days of christmas type thing. i was going to make a scavenger hunt around the house of hidden gifts. so i was thinking since i listen to everything he loves i would take all the little things and add them up to the 1 big present which would be a photo blanket of us because he really wants a photo of us so opinions? it is going to go backwards though starting at 12 going down to 1 1 would be the cheapest gift and 1 would be most expensive. for 12 i was going to back a dozen of his favorite cookies for 11 i was going to make 11 love tokens and i have yet to come up with more im trying hard though p.s. we have been dating for a very long time about 2 years and we are older.
