Christmas is over and I just feel that the meaning of christmas is lost. Just take a look at Orchard Road on christmas eve. Its like people mostly teenagers are using christmas as an excuse to create havoc. Really what is the benefit in spraying others (AND THE WORST THINGS IS THAT THE OTHERS ARE STRANGERS) with those foam and ribbon stuff. What good comes out of those actions? I mean if it is a birthday party and everyone knows everyone then it is ok to go about having a bit of fun spraying one another but spraying at strangers or worst, little kids??? What has that got to do with christmas?

I really miss the good old days where you see kids with their families hanging round orchard eating and luaghing and snapping photos. See those kids being fascinated by Santa and all those but look at today... Kids really are less innocent and child-like. Its like they grow up too fast but their maturity level is still low. On christmas eve, we see fights occuring outside cineliesure, people getting high on drugs at MRT stations, crowd pushing and shoving, kids wailing... Where are all those geunine smiles and laughter? Do families no longer get together to celebrate the birth of Jesus? Is all spraying and Orchard and getting into trouble all people or rather teenagers think about when the word christmas is mentioned? Is that what we want instilled in our kid's minds about christmas?

I am a teenager and I dun understand why other teenagers of my age act so immature. I am appalled and totally disgusted by their behaviour. It's just like seeing the bad side of humankind. When I think of how Jesus will feel when he look down Orchard Road on xmas eve. All I can think of is the hurt and pain. Just imagine seeing all these chaos and havoc on ur special day, the day you were born, the day you came down as a human to walk your life and then scarcifice yourself for their sins. And the fact that man sin every minute is bad enough but on such a special day, we should all try even harder to try not to sin but rather spend time in praise and worship but of course it didnt happen that way. Its really disappointing, it really is.

Sigh... I just feel sad. The meaning of christmas is lost admist all that chaos. What's the world becoming to? It's getting worse every second. Now I know why God want us to be like a light to the world. It;s so that we can bring people back to Jesus, back to God. That's where we belong. We belong to God and one day, we be in heaven wif Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit and we celebrate together as one happy family. Though no one except God knows when that day is but we can be sure that day will come. It will come.
