What I Did On Christmas While I see some people joyfully celebrated Christmas, I did as well. It is nice seeing people happy especially the kids. Nonetheless, I am not the sort of a person who celebrate holidays and occasions lavishly myself. While seeing some of our fellowmen suffer, experiencing catastrophes, sadness and sickness, I think it would be exceptionally uncaring and kind of insensitive spending the holiday luxuriously and not thinking about them. That is likewise one reason why I keep everything minimal and low-key. My Christmas worked out in a good way. I spent it very simply with a thankful prayer. My daughter and I went for a simple Christmas Eve dinner at the beach. Nothing fancy. Just a piece of chicken each and a drink, the waves and the cool breeze of Christmas air. Since my better half is in the US, he celebrated with us with a video call when we got back home from dinner. As far as I might be concerned, that is all that anyone could need.

The following day, Christmas day, we went to my mom's house in the farmland and celebrated it there with a Christmas lunch along with my relatives and of course, with my silly "aspin" dog Sofia. We had a small potluck kind of lunch and I brought a pan of spaghetti and pancit palabok. In spite of the fact that I missed you all here on read.cash and noise.cash, I really do however, I truly planned to get disconnected online this Christmas since it just comes once a year. I would rather not underestimate this season and I needed to invest my quality time for my family as it were. I had a social media detox for 3 days and it was generally worth the effort. Just a little sad because my uncle (my mom's older brother) is ill (stage 4 prostate cancer) and that breaks my heart seeing him laid in bed on Christmas. Yesterday, they brought him back to the hospital for isolation.

**Before I continue, I am not sharing this for honors or recognition. By any means. I commonly never at any point share the things I do because that is not the purpose in doing them.** So, beside being with family and relatives, I likewise did a little community gift giving. Being here alive, kicking and endured 2 years of pandemic is such a huge blessing. So as a method of being thankful to God, my daughter and I wrapped a few presents for our relatives and the kids in our neighborhood. I am trying my hardest best and put as much good into the the world as possible. I can't change the world, however, I can help. We all can. Those who will get presents need it more. Since it doesn't make any difference, it just matters that they need it.

**At the present time, the world doesn't need shouting show-off words, but more thoughtful gestures and kindness.** Assuming everybody quit yelling for some time and quit attempting to be correct constantly, and on second thought put that energy into helping other people or changing their own lives, how much more we'd really achieve in getting to a better place. It's not impossible. We all can do it. The day after Christmas, I was physically tired and got some chills. I tried to come and peek online yesterday, but my body just could not do it. Other than that, my Christmas was spent humbly. I hope you all spent yours meaningfully as well.
