It is Dec.3...Christmas is just around the corner. During this month people are  encountering cheer, sorrow, gratefulness,love etc. We think about our loved ones, those with us and those who have passed. This is a common time when wounds and mended and ties are formed. I can not forget the children, their Christmas list and their anticipation. But what are they yearning for....MATERIALS, MATERIALS, MATERIALS. What are we teaching our children? Before you go out and stress yourself out to find gifts, do your children know the real meaning of Christmas. And why when I look on Facebook , I see parents saying "I did good this Christmas, my child/children are gonna have a good Christmas". What is a "good" Christmas??? What even worse, it is the "Church Folk" that are doing. The ones that have so much to say in church during the rest of the year, the one alwyas turning up their noses..SMH. Nobody is perfect I know, but as Christians shouldn't we be the ones spreading the true meaning of Christmas. It make s me mad that we all go to church to hear the true meaning of Christmas but "True Christmas" is not in our homes. The media; advertisements, social institutions and peers of children and adults blur the true meaning of Christmas. Instead of spending over 500 dollars on gifts,give every one a card. This is what I want you to write...


                                                          "Merry Christmas!!!
             This Card assures you that I know the true meaning of Christmas, Do You?.....

(LOL don't do this, it will seem insulting)

But it is important for you to acknowledge the "True" importance of this day. And Parents don't feel guilty, in 2 months they won't even touch those toys and games you spent your last dime on....
