For some reasons everyone rushes towards December. I ve been seeing a lot of ‘I love december” “seasons greetings” pms and dps. Consciously or unconsciously one realizes that no matter how broke people claim to be, the society is looking forward to Christmas, preparing for Christmas in December.
People prepare for various reasons, for some its merriment and time to be with distant loved ones again, for some it’s the interesting and exciting Christmas church services and beautiful carol renditions, for others it is the holidays they get, free days to do whatever they like and for some it’s the time to make extra money (industries that pay for extra work hours during holidays). For some it’s the time to achieve all they have been unable to achieve all through the year. Marriage, house warming, buying a new car and so on.
All in all, there is a rush before December and there is another rush in December (Christmas celebration and merriment) then the rush after December ( Rush into the new year as well as new year celebrations itself).
All of these are expected and to a reasonable extent normal , but what happens to us and in our lives after December and January 1st? What happens in our lives as individuals? What happens in the remaining part of the year? How do we live? Is it possible that we live everyday of our lives in celebration, merriment, kindness, consecration, celebration of GOD the trinity and life? can we live in giving and compassion, strive to achieve like we do when the year is coming to an end? can we inculcate this spirit we put on during these season into our daily lives? Think about it.
