I love Christmas, I decided it was time for a new layout. So I went in search of a good Christmas layout. but UGH! There are no good CHRISTIAN blog lay outs. I want something that shows my love for God in the holiday season. Not something that says I'm looking for the 'perfect' gift.
Which, by the way I'm not.
Im not going to fall into the commercialization of Christmas this year. So far I have completely avoided it. Whats the point in searching high and low for the 'perfect gift' for someone. Something that will end up in the closet or thrown in the corner by the end of January. I decided this year, I don't want to fall into that. I want christmas to be about the birth of my lord. Besides, I have everything I want. I have incredible friends, and Jim. I have a wedding in a mere 164 days (but who's counting!?!). I couldn't ask for more.
So, instead, this year my friends and I have made a commitment to write each other letters about what our friendship means to us. Its a MUCH more meaningful gift, one that won't get thrown into the back of a closet, one that will not soon be forgotten. Isn't that what Christmas is REALLY about anyways? spending time with the people you love, worshiping our lord, and not falling prey to the perfect gift that is advertised on every commercial during the holiday season.
I can't wait to give my letters to my friends. And to read what they wrote.
It means more this way.
