Advent

In this world of commercialism and capitalism (Macy's is having a 24-hour shop-a-thon starting December 21st.), people tend to forget the true meaning of X'mas. I am also one of those people who tend to look at the forthcoming holidays as a time to eat, drink & be merry. It is still the season of Advent and therefore, should be a time for reflection and preparation for the birth of J.C. The priest did a good job at drilling this message into my head. I am feeling very guilty, right now :(

Anyway, took this photo of Jesus' Nativity while out on an evening walk last Friday night. Yes, in between Thursday and the weekend's storm, we had a night of calm.

It is nice to see decorations depicting the reason why we celebrate December 25th. every year.

Did I say "eat, drink & be merry" earlier on?

See, this is not an example Santa should be setting for the kids. Tsk, tsk, tsk!
