So this is Christmas...

And I rather like it. I hold the firm belief that this time of year tends to bring out people's true character. Which is great, but sometimes messy. But I suppose that's just life.

For me, Christmas is all about love. Love for family, friends, people who don't have love in their lives, and most importantly, the love that somehow exceeds all other love combined- the love of a savior. I wish it was Christmas all the time. not because of the material advantages and pleasures (but really, what's wrong with having lights up all year round?) but because of the love.

I'm sorry that sometimes at Christmas, I concentrate on myself and my direct surroundings instead of acknowledging the bigger picture and loving unabashedly. Christ came to love, and I want love like that, be it Christmas time or not.
