do you celebrate Christmas?

it was an innocent question.

but for the first time i was dumbfounded.

i tried to search for the right words.

“err…yes and er…not really.”

does celebrating mean attending church service on christmas day? getting involve in christmas related church activities? exchanging presents with friends? partying with friends? or just silently acknowledging it is the birth of Jesus?

for now, i no longer know.

it has been close to 7 years and for the first time, i doubt i have truly grasped the true meaning of christmas.

blessed christmas
