2012 Year Ender : Unchangeable, Unworkable.

Here I am, writing a blog about change at 5 o'clock in the morning. I've been prepping myself up for this very moment I can write about my 2012, and talk about CHANGE and how much everybody loves the word. There are a lot of things that happened the past year that made me who I am today, and for a change, I decided not to give an overview about it. If someone asks me -- "looking back, what are the things you thought you might do better in the past?" I will answer -- "Given the chance to go back, I will do ALL of it again, the same way I did it..." I'm not saying that I've done things perfect, in fact it was not at all.

Christmas in a child's eyes

When I was younger, Christmas for me is the time I get to spend time with my loving  family, beloved cousins and relatives I rarely see within a year.

I'm not being a hypocrite when I say "I'm not expecting anything material from them " but its the last thing that comes up in my mind. The First, is the wonderful feeling of being with my cousins and spend time with them which only happens on a limited occasion-- one of which is CHRISTMAS day. Now that I grew older I see Christmas in a different light. Somehow, the innate child in me was unraveled  as I think of the things that would make my gab happy. My happiness is somehow intertwined with my child's as if it is my own. Having gab in my life if the most wonderful gift CHRIST has ever given me. And I will forever be grateful as I continue to see the upcoming Christmas the way a child sees it.
