7 Reasons Why Christmas Season is the Best
5. Xmas parties galore
There are numerous parties, where you mix with your colleagues, friends and family. There’s food and wine, especially the Christmas turkey and the special Xmas cake with rum and all sorts of goodies. Office parties are special where chums get together.
6. The Wise Shepherds and the Holy Infant
The happy sounds of carols fill the air. When it’s not the kids singing carols, it’s the churches that reverberate with holy hymns; when people line up to light a candle before Mother Mary and Jesus and pray for peace.
7. Festivities aplenty
With each succeeding day after Christmas, there are festivities – Boxing Day; Kwanzaa, which lasts for a few days; St. John the Evangelist’s Day; Holy Innocent’s Day; Saint Sylvester’s Day; leading to Watch Night, which coincides with the New Year’s Eve.
It’s that time of the year when people sit back finally to reflect on the significance of Christmas and hope that its peace reaches out to everyone.
