It’s been days since my last post, my 100th post actually and so I wanted my 101th post to be something special. Not that I’m abandoning my site already, it’s just that I’ve been actually contemplating on what to post out here. Then finally I came up with an idea, something that I can actually call special. It’s about Christmas present, my Christmas present.
A few days ago, I got my early Christmas present from a special friend. Although we’ve been friends for months only, obviously for a short a time. I know that what we have is something for keeps, something that I can truly say our friendship is worth treasuring.
For the longest time that I’ve spent my xmas here in Saudi Arabia. It’s always me who’s giving but there are a few instances that I received gifts if I got lucky. But I am not complaining. Everybody enjoys Christmas presents, children and adults alike and it’s customary to give presents to each other very often.
They say, esp. people in today’s world claim that, Christmas is all about presents. I’d say no. It’s about making an effort to reach out to family and friends this time of the year. It’s very nice when people give presents to each other from love. It doesn’t have to be very expensive, it could be a small modest presents but it is important that is given with love and not from obligation.
As you can see, I have posted pictures of my early X-mas present and I really really like it. Just the way I like it. The billabong shirt, the havaianas flipflops and the hot new album of brit. WOW! I couldn’t ask for more!
To my dearest friend, I got this poem esp. for you.
Your friendship is a glowing ember
Through the year; and each December
From its warm and living spark
We kindle flame against the dark
And with its shining radiance light
Our tree of faith on Christmas night.
From its warm and living spark
We kindle flame against the dark
And with its shining radiance light
Our tree of faith on Christmas night.

Christmas is the most beautiful holiday of the year. It has a special charm. Peace, love, various traditional habits, Christmas carols and glamorous Midnight Mass participates on its joy, too.
I may have not experience all of this things for years anymore since I started working in KSA but the fun of Christmas memories will stay in me forever!
Having said all that, i'd like to finally say thanks to you my friendship for the gifts. Means a lot to me. I maybe light in saying gratitude sometimes but i really really appreciate what you've done, I do!
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!

Friends
A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in a better and happier place.
