“‘Tis the season to be jolly!” Yes, it’s that time of the year once again, a time for peace and goodwill to all men, sharing, love, and merrymaking!
Christmas to some people is the time for a pause. Keep your mind off the troubles and mundane attributes of life and get out of the “hustle and bustle” of everyday existence. To others, it is the opposite, being the rush of several social functions, family gatherings, Christmas parties, frantic last-minute gift purchasing.
To some, it is the time to reacquaint oneself to the true meaning of the season: the celebration of Christ’s coming to the world to fulfill God’s promise of reconciliation with man. As such, it is the time when people seem to be kind and accommodating to others. It is a time for old friends to rekindle long lost ties, to forgive petty infractions, to reunite families torn asunder by misunderstandings.
Christmas is when surroundings are magically transformed into beautiful tinsel towns, adorned with glittering festive decors and bright shining lights. In some areas, the White Christmas theme is brought accurately to life, while in warmer climes, artificial snow is introduced to achieve the same effect. It’s the time to choose the best looking pine trees and decorate them with colorful lights and ornaments fitting their purpose of guarding over many coveted treasures.
Christmas would not be complete with the season’s carols and songs. Be it the traditional classics or the more modern tunes. The first few bars fill your ears and hearts with angelic melodies that warm your whole being. You can hear them being sung by carolers braving the cold and busy streets to give joy to people, and hopefully get some modest remuneration in return. They can also be heard in churches, via the marvelous pipe organs or by simple choirs and instruments.
Christmas is also the chance to eat those sumptuous feasts of Christmas turkey, ham, roast beef, mashed potatoes, fruitcakes, eggnogs, apple or pumpkin pies, chestnuts roasting, and a heavenly selection of other foods. But of course, it is not just the food that’s important during the season but the spirit of sharing and togetherness that is paramount.
Many people say that Christmas is for only kids. While that may be true and could be attributed to many adults’ preoccupation in our hectic, fast-paced society, deep inside, we are all children. We all long for that enchanting moment when we try to get a glimpse of Santa Claus climbing down the chimney, putting gifts under the tree, or placing them in hung stockings.
We all still want to see the reindeer pull the magical sleigh full of wondrous gifts wrought by good ole Saint Nick himself while being assisted by his elves.
Whatever meaning Christmas has to us, it truly is the most beautiful part of everyone’s lives in the US, and also throughout the world.
To help you get you in the holiday spirit do check our best collected Christmas quotes that will fill your heart with fun and joy to remind you why we celebrate this season.

Once again we find ourselves enmeshed in the Holiday Season, that very special time of year when we join with our loved ones in sharing centuries-old traditions such as trying to find a parking space at the mall. We traditionally do this in my family by driving around the parking lot until we see a shopper emerge from the mall, then we follow her, in very much the same spirit as the Three Wise Men, who 2,000 years ago followed a star, week after week, until it led them to a parking space.
