This does not feel like Christmas. I was not here for all the family traditions we do. There was no snow. I was away busy in college not thinking about Christmas. I was thinking about how I was going to pass my classes and how I am going to even be able to go to college next semester. My mind was not on Christmas.
I get back, Christmas tree is up, lights are up, cards are on the wall, Christmas gifts are on the table and presents under the tree, Christmas movies were on, sales were crazy.... etc.
That is how our Christmas is but I was gone for most of it. I get back and I feel like I am living another life. Things were the same when I left, plus Christmas stuff.
It was weird to come back and feel like I was still in high school but not feeling the Christmas spirit.
The main thought I heard today, which is a great thought, is; Christ is a shinny present under the tree, waiting for you to open, to recieve and to accept him.
I hope all your Christmas's were bright. I hope you remembered the true meaning and celebrated Christ's birth. I hope you felt the spirit and had a wonderful time with your family and friends.
Merry Christmas!
