The miracle that is Christmas
It’s Christmas eve, Christmas dinner has just finished, I’m with my family, I’ve heard the traditional off key notes from carolers but I can’t quite figure out what’s missing. On our way home, I had the time to reflect. I was waiting for that Christmas miracle to happen. I don’t know what or how it would happen. But alas! The miracle happened! It lasted only for a few minutes and I guess it came too early, nevertheless, it was wonderful. It was when, my friends began texting to greet me Merry Christmas and it happened simultaneously. Even those whom I never expected to get a greeting from. And all of my suppressed anger, angst and discomfort morphed into forgivness, sympathy and compassion. At that moment, what I felt was just pure and genuine happiness. It was a few minutes of euphoria. A moment of natural high. I have not gotten much gifts this Christmas but looks like I got the “Surprising” and “Heart Melting” gift I’ve always wanted after all. I have realized that miracles do happen. And miracles never come less than “Great”. And all I can say is, thank you God. And Happy Birthday “besprend” Jesus!
