Merry Christmas po! Salamat sa Diyos, Pasko na uli! Malaking biyaya ng Diyos ang tayo’y muling nakaabot at nakapagdiwang pa ng Paskong masaya. Sa kabila man ng maraming kahirapan at pagsubok, iba talaga tayong mga Pilipino — nakakangiti at nakakapag-celebrate pa rin. Ang isang dahilan nito ay ang pananalig natin sa Diyos. It keeps us going. At kung may mga bagay o tao man na nagiging dahilan ng kawalang-kasiyahan mo sa Paskong ito, isang regalo na ang sila’y ipagdasal mo.
Napakaraming magagandang kahulugan ang Pasko. Alin ba ang paborito mo? Para sa akin exciting din na tayo mismo ang magbigay ng kulay at kahulugan sa pagdiriwang na ito. What meaning would you like to give to Christmas? You have the choice. You may give it a more profound meaning by letting yourself be its living witness. What I mean to say is if Christmas for you means giving, for example, why not try giving something to someone. You may give forgiveness to people who have hurt you. You may give understanding to those who disappointed you. You may give time to your family. You may give food to those who are hungry. You may give love to those entrusted to you by God. So you see, the ways can be endless. It would all depend on your creativity and generosity. In that way you give meaning to Christmas.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you all for reading and reflecting on my weekly thoughts. It is with a heavy heart that I have to say my farewell as this is my last article. I find comfort in knowing that I have helped you in your journey towards spiritual growth. My prayer is that God may always bless you and keep you all in His care. Maraming maraming salamat po! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
