What mean of Christmas?? What the dedication of Christmas??
Christmas is an annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ, it is celebrated generally on December 25 as a religious and cultural holiday by billions of people around the world. A feast central to the Christian liturgical year, it closes the Advent season and initiates the twelve days of Christmastide. Christmas is a civil holiday in many of the world's nations, is celebrated by an increasing number of non-Christians, and is an integral part of the Christmas and holiday season.

As the above mentioned Christmas was a meaningful festival for Christians to celebrate this commemoration of birth of Jesus Christ. Current era, either Christians or non-Christians also treat as a deserving on celebration on this festival, like reunion with friends / families, count down in certain lively area, exchange Christmas gift and etc. How fantastic is it…
From the childhood, I been interesting to western culture and I love and wish to celebrate for those festivals that having in western countries, instance Halloween, thanks giving day, Christmas and New Year. Sometimes I have no idea why I so interesting on this kind of festival??? I am Asian and suppose wholeheartedly into our major Chinese festival like Chinese New Year, Ching Ming festival, dragon boat festival, mid-autumn festival and Winter Solstice. A reason that I was suspected why I am boring to above mentioned Chinese festival, that was might be since the all way I was used to it when I am growing. How the sarcastic to me… A Chinese guy not reciprocated to his religion… (Despise to myself too)
Despite said that, I am craving onto celebrating those western festivals, but in fact, I am not officially enjoyed the mentioned western festivals and environment even thought I am been located in western countries right now. Another shamed that I have… Many peoples are always putting in mouth that jealous me, envy to me, can enjoy and celebrated those happening festival in western countries. But who else’s knew I am lonely on celebrated over here? When every time peoples asking me “how was your celebration on the festival? Sure there were happening on it right?” According to this question, I always shilly-shally on this. (sourish feeling) By the way, this is prep to me…
Come back to Christmas, although I am alone on transited to this festival by yesterday. But I am still happy that my best friends in Mexico here going to celebrated in advance with me on 23 Dec. Because they knew that in the actual day they are going not free. I felt guilty on that day (23 Dec), I been worked OT until 9pm and they are waiting me until the time I am knocking off… Actually I am dejected on my working matter, but I very touching that my best friend did the way to me… I am glad to having “best friend” like you guys. Estamos mejores amigos
