When I was a child, around 10, 11, Christmas was the best time of the year. Actually, year seems to pass so slow between one Christmas and another. At Christmas eve (dec, 24) the whole family met to spend the night at grandma´s. We sang Christmas carols and many other musical styles. Close to midnight we exchange presents. It was the most exciting moment of the night! We had a lot of fun then... Now my family is disintegrated; some of them died and others left the country, Nevertheless, rest of us still gather together and try to keep the candle on.
We are believers, so this time is very significant, it´s not just a party, but a spiritual commemoration, Jesus birth.
Merry Christmas to all of you!
