December is the month that I love the most. The climate is nice. It is cold in the mornings and nights. It is breezy throughout the day. The sky is always blue and the days are shiny and sunny. There is no other time of the year that would refresh your mind like December.

Then there is another reason to be cheerful during this time of the year – the Christmas. The houses are lit with the stars, the crib and it’s decorations. There is music in the air. However, I miss those old Christmas days. The days when my brothers used to make Christmas crib and tree. It was my late second brother who begun with making crib in our house. He was an artist and his skills showed up. We would put the crib in our veranda. At nights, we used the candle lights to lit up the crib as we did not have electricity in our house. We used to wait for the Christmas carol teams to come home to see Santa. The interesting part was to find out who played Santa as it would be mostly someone from the neighborhood.

The best were those days when you used to decorate your crib with your brothers and sisters when you were all together. The best were those days when you went to those midnight masses in the cold nights and used to sing the hymns in the Church without thinking too much about the concept of religion and God. The best were those days when you wished “Happy Christmas” after the Choir to the girl on whom you had a huge crush…

I miss those days badly. And I need that happiness and innocence of Christmas back. I need that good ol’ Christmas back…

Wishing you all the joy and peace of Christmas…
