Yesterday I spent to buy Christmas presents, of course via the Internet. The family that grows and grows and there is already a small army of nephews and nieces, timidly putting (now) the human phenomenon of expectations.
remember the words of a priest about the loss of the Christian meaning of Christmas. Yet this sense was never very clear, was established as the year Jesus was born approximately 345 AD, before that corresponded to the pagan celebrations of winter solstice, as Roman festivals of Saturn, the god of agriculture, and in general to the resurgence of the sun after the longest night. I can assume it was a pagan holiday date almost since man is man, that is at least about 8 thousand years, and a Christian holiday about 1665 years.
Anyway, I like giving gifts, beyond things, the practice of giving away something is hopeful, it is the opposite of selfishness and therefore opposed to the economic system which forces us to live. You need to teach our children (and adults) to give, to be specialists in giving, a fun gift, not as a display of what we have nor fortune smiles now but as an exercise the perspective that you have about material things and your relationship with them.
why I find it very valuable picture of Father Christmas, against everything that most say in terms of a materialist assumption. A person who has dedicated his life to give, without saving anything for him, and whose main motivation is to surprise and give happiness and hope to those who behaved well, that support life on values \u200b\u200band principles such as solidarity, search truth and happiness of others. Very early I knew I was not real, and the exercise of each year was to see how they managed to make us believe my parents actually happened, strategic Aunt that took us to a room with some excuse or go look at the stable neighbor because insurance was lost, at which passed through the house and filled the packages tree. I even remember a guy stripping spent lining the street and my parents said the old man was in such a hurry that he left the gifts on the street outside the house: D Well
why I leave these videos, to bend a Santa Claus too nice, Australian creator Steven Casey, and paying tribute to this poor old man misunderstood, yet it gives me no less than an idol and an example for these materialistic times. Greetings to all and a very merry Christmas!
