The Birth of Christ

The first Christmas happened in a small stable at Betlehem. It was a very divine and silent night when the three kings offered their gifts:frankiscence,gold and myrrh. Only the angels sang in praise of Jesus Christ,son of God,The Father.
But now,every Christmas had been really different;a lot of carolers at the streets,wonderful and colorful lanterns everywhere,gigantic christmas trees with dazzling christmas lights. Unlike the first, almost all the people had been seen giving gifts to each other. Nowadays, the whole world had been celebrating Christmas not like before,only those who had seen the star knew about Christ's birth.
However, during Christmas not only Jesus Christ is the main attraction but also Saint Nicolas A.K.A. Santa Claus. At Christmas season,who would forget the big fat man in red giving gifts to children with his nine reindeers? But because of him, Christmas means more exciting every year.
Moreover, did you know that Christmas is the longest season in the Philippines? It starts from September 1 to the celebration of the three kings the first sunday of January.
Therefore, Christmas had been the most awaited time of the whole world where love,peace and harmony reigns. But we should always remember that Christmas doesn't only mean the happiest day in the year but also the day when Christ, the Savior,was born.
