My childhood memories of Christmas revolve around helping mom to make sweets, singing Carols in the vicinity, midnight mass followed by a Christmas party and waiting for Santa Claus to give us gifts.The difference nowadays is the time limit; it’s really unfortunate that everything has to be wrapped up by a given deadline and of course living up to the demands made by the kids at home.
As a child, I believed in Santa Claus and the most interesting story I remember is that Santa is watching you all the time and will give you gifts only if you have been good throughout the year. (This is exactly what I tell my kids at home)
This Christmas, like every year bringing a smile on people’s faces specially the underprivileged and the aged is my main aim.
