3rd Advent of the week

we celebrate the 3rd advent of the week last monday.We read about " The King Born in a stable" . from the title itself , reminds us that God was born in a simple way, ibig sabihin, christmas is not about new clothes, toys, extravagant noche buena, and other material things nakakakapag bigay pa sa atin ng stress....

naisip ko mula ngayon , tatangalin ko na ang stress ng holidays sa akin, i keep it more simple
1. no more new clothes during Christmas, after all  we can buy new clothes when we really need it ( buying new clothes during this holidays are only for those who don't have enough money to buy on other months due to tight budget)
2. simple gift giving, like e-cards,Chocolate Gift Bags, gift checks
3. toys that only cost 80 pesos and below na pwede mo ng bilhin sa local market nyo, pagkatapos naman nila laruin yung toy, iiwan din nila ulit yan, ilang days lang sawa na sila, so why buy too expensive toys.
4. simple noche buena, kahit pandesal at ham at mainit na kape pwede na yun... yung nga iba wala naman talaga pambili kahit tinapay...tuloy nawala ang diwa ng pasko na pag wala kang noche buena parang ang lungkot lungkot, di naman dapat kasi ganoon , dahil ang pasko ay dapat masaya sapagkat ito ang kaarawan ng ating tagapgligtas....

may your Christmas be filled of joy and Happiness.... Merry Christmas!
