WHY CHRISTMAS MATTERS?

WHY CHRISTMAS MATTERS?

By: Beatriz Flores

There is no holiday like Christmas. It has transcended its religious origins and it has become the most universally celebrated holiday. But no country celebrates the yuletide season like the Philippines, and that is the reason why you are reading this article on September rather than on December. I can bet you have heard a Christmas song play on the radio or a Christmas themed ad play while you watch TV. It is truly a beautiful season, but why does it matter? Moreover, why should it matter now?

  1. The Gifts

 

When you picture Christmas, an image of people exchanging gift surely appears. It may seem cynical, but it is not really shallow. There is no shame in wanting to receive gifts, because most of the time it is really not about the gift. It is more about the fact that someone took the time out of their day, and the money out of their own wallet to give you something they think you would cherish. And with the hectic lives we live, it really provides those bits of warmth you need as the year ends.

But giving a present is truly no easy task; it is truly not a walk in a park.  Because how do you encapsulate all your gratefulness for the people you love into one gift? Is anything you ever buy going to be enough?

  1. The Food

 

Any family gathering centers on a collection of epic meals. And when it is Christmas? Only all the stars of family dishes get featured on the Holiday’s banquet. If your family is anything like mine, you can almost always be sure of what is going to be prepared and served on Christmas day. It includes all the delicious dishes that I have been yearning to eat all year. It is not that you have not had a taste of your Uncle’s famous roasted chicken, it is just that you have not shared it with the people cherish in a while.

Sharing good food with the people you love is an experience that Christmas heightens uniquely. Even though it is only September, the thought of your family’s Christmas staples must be making your mouth water. But how are you going to share that experience with your family while the pandemic is still on-going?

  1. The Family

 

Filipino culture’s one of most defining characteristics is our undeniable adoration we hold for our family. Christmas festivities are amazing, but it is more about the opportunity to finally spend quality time with our loved ones. As we grow older, the holidays have looked different. The weeks of school vacation have turned into just a few days off work, life has become more hectic but that does not mean we need a break any less. That is why most Pinoys make it a point to dedicate their Christmas break into spending it with their loved ones.

But how are we going to spend this year’s Christmas with all the craziness happening in the world when we will probably not be with our loved ones? Should we just reserve the Christmas lights for next year? Put all the fun activities we had planned on hold? Does Christmas still matter this year?

Yes, yes, Christmas still matters. It is probably more important now more than ever. Right now, we need the support and warmth that only our loved ones can provide. This year’s celebration might look different but that does not mean it will take away the joy of bonding with our loved ones in whatever medium we choose. We are still months away from Christmas, we have lots of time to prepare. If anything, we should all invest in making this the best Christmas celebration we can.

Give the gifts you always wish you could give to your parents, buy that oven or any home appliance that will help you make that dish you have always dreamed of serving to your family on Christmas day! There are many ways you can deliver your gifts or the food you made to your loved ones if they are far away.
