Contemplation amidst Christmas

Tis the Christmas season, a time when one can see Christmas trees everywhere, majestically decorated.
And its also a time for giving and sharing.
Been to several complexes, and its a joy to see the little children running excitedly everywhere, just lifts one's spirit up.
How innocent and happy they are!

Most people would be getting gifts for their family members and loved ones during this festive season.
Three cheers to them! For they have shown the spirit of giving, and this in turn would influence others as well to walk in their footsteps.
And giving need not be in the form of materials - giving can be in any form, and one of the best gifts is the Gift of Joy and Love.
Which literally means, sharing your Happiness with others, so that they can be part of it too.

But at the same time, let us not forget about those who are less fortunate than us.
Many in the world may not be experiencing the same situations.
And we can make a difference in their lives but doing something for them.
Again, spread to them the Gift of Joy, touch their lives so that they know that someone cares for them.
The warmest sanctuary during the coldest of winters is within your heart - knowing that someone cares.

When we give, let it be genuine giving.
Let us not expect anything in return.
Because the best gifts returned to us are the radiant smiles and joyous laughter from others. =)
