Christmas happens to be one of my most preferred days of the year as it is a day of love, family and appreciation. I really took pleasure in every moment of this Christmas, particularly at spending time with my family. We were united and smiling, laughing and telling stories, eating wonderful food. Christmas is something special to me as I enjoy simple moments like this.

The food was one of the most significant aspects of our Christmas celebration. And the food was such a good thing, my word! We feasted on numerous delicacies but the best was the lechon baboy that was cooked by my papa. And it was good and made our Christmas dinner more than special. Dining with the family made the food more pleasant since it was full of love and joy.

Other than the food, my family is a great blessing to me. I am particularly thankful to my ate who purchases gifts in my honor and also in our family. The gifts were not material at all, they were a reflection of love and care that she had towards us. I really like her attempt and gentleness. Taking gifts is enjoyable all the time, but when a person knows that the gifts are given out of love, then it becomes even better.

Above all, I would like to thank God that I got all the blessings. Life, healthy body, meals on our table, a loving family, and support are the things I am grateful about. Christmas also makes me remember that simple blessings are extremely vital and need to be appreciated at all times.

The Christmas Day I had allowed me to realize that expensive things cannot make me happy. It is a result of having the people we love around, eating together, giving thanks and being thankful to God. This Christmas will be memorable to me due to the fact it was full of joy, love, and gratitude.
I also hope that you all had a great and blessed Christmas as well. Let us never forget to be thankful to all the blessings we have and it is not on Christmas alone but on every day.
