Pandemic isn’t an exception to squeeze out the Spirit of Christmas

Christmas in the Philippines is like no other. It is filled with celebrations and customs. Filipino Christmas means lights, music, feasts, and time spent with family and friends.Surely, Christmas is definitely “more fun in the Philippines” the country with the longest celebration of Christmas. The loving nature of Filipinos and strong faith in God is so pure, making Christmas the best season to embody it. There is something about Christmas that makes Filipinos feel so centered.However how can Filipinos celebrate Christmas if there were this pandemic? Was it still the same tho?

The Celebration of Christmas Season in last year was pretty boring.People can’t go out, travel and do what they use to do like caroling in strangers houses.It wasn’t as colorful, happy and significance as before because of the large impact of this pandemic in our lives. However, we’re glad that everything was slowly going back to normal. Now, we’re sure that we can celebrate this upcoming Christmas without minding too much about the virus and celebrate like how we use to in the previous years.We all know that Filipinos do everything for this event right? Even when they don’t have money, they are taking effort to borrow just to make sure they have something to prepared in their tables and so the can give presents to their love ones. This stand alone, prove that we won’t let this pandemic ruin our way.

It is only a matter of 13 days before Christmas!Surely, Filipinos won’t let this go off without preparing and celebrating it because for us, it was the most important event in the whole year not just because of the enjoyments and fulfillment, but because this was the day that our Savior was born.Damn Weather.Damn money.F*ck COVID-19. Our celebration of Christmas should not be dampened by these!Christmas 2021 may be unpleasant for many, but let’s mak
e the 2022 the best for all.Let us spread more hope, peace, joy and love this Season!
