Richmond, British Columbia, Canada - It's the period of the year when people get too busy on their shopping or party planning as part of their preparation for the Christmas celebration. It's the time for gift-giving or remembering the less fortunate.
There are some people though, who could opt to wait for the boxing day to find good deals or bargains. I guess everyone has their own way of spending the holiday...
Being in a multi-cultural community, one can experience ethnic custom and tradition. From the decorating part to cooking or inviting friends over or other members of the family to a dinner.
I must admit, this is my favorite season of the year. I love the idea of the make-believe world of Santa Claus. Kids are amazed by the fact that when they have been good, nice things follow...So they will patiently wait for the eve to come...I like to hear Christmas carols...to see and appreciate the creativity of people who go out their way to put up decor and lights...
Whatever reason one may have, I believe one of the nicest things about this Yuletide season is that it brings people together to wish, hope, and pray for the better.
