Christmas In INDIA...2012(part 1)!!!

Christmas eve candle light service.

Last year December, i was singing the song "Christmas in Lagos". This year, there is no song at all.

On Christmas eve i was so depressed because i wasn't feeling the spirit of Christmas like i normally do, No Christmas carols, No banger (knockouts/fire crackers) like we have in Naija , No sales of chickens on the roads , No traffic sef. and am wondering, where did Christmas go?

And then it Hit me! I'm in India, a country with different religions. Oh well, i decided to make myself happy by listening to carols on YouTube,lol.

Christmas carol service @ #pearlcity church was amazing, apparently its the best carol service i ever attended,with the songs and the candle lights, gradually,the nostalgia subsided.




Christmas day came, hung out with friends during the day, at least i ate "Rice, chicken and coleslaw", our very own Christmas food. hehehe. We also spread the joy of Christmas to some kids around the area, gave them drinks and candy,took pictures with them, and they were so happy, seeing their smiling faces alone made it a happy day for me.

Hung out with some more friends in the evening, it was such a pleasant day and at the end of it all, i realized that it wasn't a bad Christmas at all.

It doesn't matter if i'm in Lagos or India, its about the  people around me, friends becoming family, sharing with one another , spreading the love , hugging a child , That's the reason for the season, and so is Christ!!!

Merry Christmas Everyone and have a prosperous New year!
