MERRY CHRISTMAS. Mariona E. (1r batx B)


MERRY CHRISTMAS


When you listen the word Christmas you always think about lights, presents or holidays but is it really only these things? From my point of view, if you think about it seriously you can see that Christmas is more than this...

We live in a corrupt society where people only think of themselves or in the new mobile phone which they can not buy. Christmas is coming and everybody starts to get ready going to the shopping centre and buying all the Christmas presents. I know that it is a period of spending and materialism but you should look around yourself and realize that you are very lucky.

There are other places in the world where people don’t have even half of our advantages and their smile is so much pure that you can think they are the richest people in the world. They value much more happiness and generosity than other material things and they have a humility that we would like to have here. Sometimes I would like that they come here and teach us how to be humans. If I was one of these people, I would be horrified with our lives. We are falling in a selfishness hole. Fortunately, there are still people who fight every day to make a better world.

On the other hand, Christmas is a period full of happiness, love and solidarity. It makes you a better person and shows the best things of you. For example, nowadays we are living in a crisis situation and lots of families and people don’t have a job or a home to stay for Christmas. More than ever, I think we must be supportive and stay together. I would wish these people not to fall into misery and to move on. You must believe on magic of Christmas and see a fair world. It’s a period to think and give to other people.

In my opinion, we can always be a better person if we want to. I’m not talking about miracles or feats, small details are the ones that show us how to help each other.  Christmas is the opportunity to make something different, to think in new objectives, to be supportive, to believe in magic, to help others, to make your dreams come true...So, Christmas is not only a few weeks, it is the whole year. I want to celebrate it everyday and wish to all of you the same, Merry Christmas!
