Compliments dear community and friends ππ.
What a season that always brings back memories from the past. I donβt think there is any memory I can recall that is better than the Yuletide season of growing up as a child . Christmas means everything to my siblings and I because of how my mother will always make or buy special Christmas π gown and shoes for me.
And as I saw this prompt ending featured content for week 196, my mind suddenly went back to Christmas celebration while growing up because as a child I was always so excited π once the month of December begins due to how the weather suddenly began changing, showing the signs of winter βοΈ which certainly means year with Christmas holidays.
As a child I could vividly remember how my mother will start buying things gradually for Christmas. First it will be the clothings she will want to take to the cloth designer to avoid the rushing hour that they start to hike prices because of how too many people will want to make Christmas clothings. This usually is really a fun π€© season because not that people donβt have clothes to wear, but the issue is that everyone wants to appear in new clothings , shoes and even bags. I see this as a time to show that God has been faithful for grace of life.
Another great memory of this season of celebration π is how family unite together from far and near. Many people will travel to meet with family just to be together during the Christmas holidays, creating an evergreen memory that even as an adult we keep remembering because good memories brings so much happiness to us.
And I could still remember how my family and I sometimes will take a trip to the village to celebrate π with other people that will also travel back. Usually not an easy trip because my father would have brought out some certain amount of money for purchase of food items that will at least last for two (2) good weeks. Then , other traveling expenses which he has also budgeted for. But the fun π€© part of all these are that itβs Christmas celebration π that occurs just once in a year.
As an adult now, I can still feel my childhood memories which I see in my children once Christmas is by the conner. My daughter does not joke with all the Christmas decorations which was not a major issue during my childhood. But I can see it now as something we must not miss during this season. The Christmas trees π. Lightings and every other decorations are the most significant of Christmas season. They bring the real mood in action.
I can practically tell you that there is no season or celebration π that is greater than that of the Christmas. Its an evergreen season of celebration. And I see it as a time with family , friends, loved π₯° ones and those we have crossed path with. This is what makes it a special season and time. We need to always take a pause to reflect on how good it is to be celebrating π₯³ among the millions of people around the world π at this time of the year. A celebration π from generation to generation.
