I've always hoped for more christmasey Christmas here in Jakarta and then my friend said, "It's Christmas everywhere!"
Truly, he is kinda right.
Never mind what people say about Christmas, whether its a consumerism disease or phenomena. It is Christmas, it is a symbol of hope and for me, patience too.
In the month of Christmas, I realise I have to put down, just for a little while, my guard, worries and cares, to appreciate the spirit of Christmas. Beyond the glittery trees, ribbons and candles, it reminds me of faith.
Sometimes life can lift you up and keep you hanging for so long you are afraid you will fall, right to zero with nothing in your hands. But this year, without snow, christmas tree or any special celebration, I embrace Christmas with prayer, keeping hope alive.
