What do you see in the image above?

Notes:

• It’s the falling snow flake: Christmas begins the season for snow – and nothing welcomes in Christmas more then the first snow flakes that begin to fall. Each little snow flake has it’s distinct design – no two are exactly alike. And as the snow flakes fall, the snow begins to accumulate developing a winter wonderland for snowmen and fun:

• It’s in the music: bring in more cheer by listening to familiar Christmas tunes and lyrics. Tunes such as Jingle Bells – White Christmas – O come all Ye faithful – Santa is Coming to Town – and much more. Sitting by the fire with soft Christmas music – snow flakes falling softly outside – and your family close is what makes Christmas special:

• Christmas is a time of reflection: not just for yourself, but for others that include family – friends – and strangers. Christmas is the time to be generous, giving our time and resources to help benefit those who lack. Hopefully the feeling of charity will become instilled as we move into the new year:

• Don’t forget the Christmas star – can you find it: Christmas is the ultimate gift of the Christ child born far far away on a Judea’s plains. It is His birth that signifies that greatest gift of Christmas.

Final observation:

So as we near the Christmas season, put aside all of the hustle and bustle that is often associated with the Christmas holiday and shopping. Reflect on those simple things on what makes Christmas fun – the snow flake – the music – the gift of charity – and the birth of the Christ child. It’s these simple things that make Christmas fun and enjoyable.
