A Christmas Thought

Member since 2002 · Posted 7 Dec 2004 · 10 comments

You can feel it now it's in the air Christmas time is drawing near A time to sing and shout for joy In Bethlehem was born a boy A child to change our life, our way Oh lets rejoice that happy But now the reasons long been lost At Christmas time we count the cost We stuff ourselves with food and drink Of Jesus Christ we little think Around the Globe so far from thought The children starve, their lives so short So remember please on Christmas day A thought for those so far away You'll fill your glass, shut off your mind It's Christmas time, God Bless Mankind.

Wow. That's the most original Christmas thought ever. It's so important that we stop to think, at least once, about the true meaning of Christmas. Because in today's fast paced world of microwave dinners and plastic toys (as opposed to the more traditional woods), baby Jesus has been lost, only to be replaced by a giant Sony Dreamcast Cube (or whatever it is the little brats like to play with these days).

One can only hope. I think it's terrible that so many people feel they have to scorn the true message of Christmas. Yes, my views may not be trendy, they may not sound like a barrel of laughs when sat next to a week stuffing your face and watching T.V, but there really is more to life than getting presents. Dovina would do well to think about that over the coming weeks. Thanks for listening, and God bless. -10-
