Meaning of Christmas for me

Christmas is an annual holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus. Christmas festivities often combine the commemoration of Jesus' birth with various secular customs, many of which have been influenced by earlier winter festivals. The date of the celebration is traditional but it is not considered to be his actual date of birth.

The word "Christmas" is a contraction of two words "Christ's mass" and is derived from the Middle English Christemasse and Old English Cristes mæsse, a phrase first recorded in 1038. In early Greek versions of the New Testament, the letter Χ (chi), is the first letter of Christ (Χριστός). Since the mid-16th century Χ, or the similar Roman letter X, was used as an abbreviation for Christ. Thus, Xmas is an abbreviation for Christmas.

Well, the above is some information i found in wikipedia about meaning of christmas.

Everyone have their own version of christmas meaning so do I.

My christmas is the day where we gather friends we havent seen for ages to come out for a dinner either luxury or average. Last year christmas was okay. I had a dinner with friends in a restaurant. But this year, christmas will be a silent one.

Too much of sad happenings things fall onto me. Feels like kinda hard to get up sometimes. Not to mention, unable to be together with the loved one. How worst could that be? It's a nightmare for me unable to be together with the one I adore, loved so much.

I hate this kinda feeling. Erghh can somebody just hit me at the head or something? LOLz kinda lazy to care of myself anymore..

I know God will be sad to know about this.
