Our Christmas

 


Christmas time is the time for giving and sharing but for me its all about fun. I have so much fun during this time of the year. I like to stay with my family as much as I can because family comes first. For my friends as well, we try to stay with our family as much as we can until we can't take it anymore. During the season of the Holidays, its all about the food like the: candy, tamales, doughnuts, cookies, cake, rice, beans and gifts that we all receive. For I its all about family my great friends and the Christmas parties.

             Christmas time is fun to enjoy the company of my family. It all starts on the day of Christmas Eve, I wake up in the morning, and I prepare myself to clean up the house. This process takes a good two hours to clean the whole house. Then when the house is clean, that's when my family starts to come over. The time I share with my family is the time we talk about old stories that have happened to our lives throughout the year. My family loves to cook a whole lot of fatting foods like tamales. Tamales are like a big tradition during Christmas; it's a long process to make tamales, so it's the best time for my mother and aunts to catch up on gossip. While I am waiting for the tamales to be cooked, I am usually on the phone with my friend's trying to find out where all the Christmas parties are at.

             Around midnight is when we gather in the living room to open our gifts. Then after we clean up the mess from all the gifts. My friends start to come over to my house. Most of the time they usually come over because they just got too bored at home. I don't mind having my friend's over at my house when I am spending some time with my family. This is good because I don't have to leave my house to early to just be with my friends. After an hour or so that has passed by at home, my phone is ringing off the hook. All my friends seem to call early on Christmas Day; they are only calling to see if I'm doing good. I love Christmas, it's my favorite day of the year. I hope all of us have a very wonderful Christmas.

Lent Celebration

 Lent is a 40 day season of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving that begins on Ash Wednesday and ends at sundown on Holy Thursday. It's a period of preparation to celebrate the Lord's Resurrection at Easter. During Lent, we seek the Lord in prayer by reading Sacred Scripture; we serve by giving alms; and we practice self-control through fasting. We are called not only to abstain from luxuries during Lent, but to a true inner conversion of heart as we seek to follow Christ's will more faithfully. We recall the waters of baptism in which we were also baptized into Christ's death, died to sin and evil, and began new life in Christ. Many know of the tradition of abstaining from meat on Fridays during Lent, but we are also called to practice self-discipline and fast in other ways throughout the season. Contemplate the meaning and origins of the Lenten fasting tradition in this reflection. In addition, the giving of alms is one way to share God's gifts—not only through the di...
