________________________________
I have noticed throughout my life people who have gotten further and further away from the meaning of Christmas. They get so caught up in all the shopping and gift wrapping and materialism that they lose sight of what Christmas is all about.
Jesus was given to us on Christmas Day. This is the only gift that we should be worried about. I think that if people would just slow down, take a look at the true meaning of Christmas, and focus on that they will be happier.
I used to be caught up in all the shopping and gift wrapping. I would get lost in all of the busyness. I wasn't very happy when Christmas rolled around each year. I began to dread it. Now I take a simpler approach to Christmas. I focus on the true meaning. I focus on the ultimate gift that God has given to us in our Savior, Jesus Christ. This is the true meaning of Christmas to me that I hope to instill in my son's heart.
