feel it in the air...

Where are you Christmas Why can't I find you Why have you gone away Where is the laughter You used to bring me Why can't I hear music play My world is changing I'm rearranging Does that mean Christmas changes too Where are you Christmas Do you remember The one you used to know I'm not the same one See what the time's done Is that why you have let me go Christmas is here Everywhere, oh Christmas is here If you care, oh If there is love in your heart and your mind You will feel like Christmas all the time I feel you Christmas I know I've found you You never fade away The joy of Christmas Stays here inside us Fills each and every heart with love Where are you Christmas Fill your heart with love one of my favorite christmas songs... from the soundtrack of the grinch... sang by one of my favorite female artists... faith hill.... love the movie, too... a little over a week before christmas... much of the bustle of the season is underway... i may be feeling a bit under the weather but i know God has grand plans for me... i can just feel it... even if i question some things... i know... all is well... what is christmas? a season, a date, a day... the time where most businesses boom, a busy time at work or break from school... vacation, parties, reunion with friends, family gatherings... shopping for, giving and exchanging gifts, singing carols, putting up christmas trees, hanging parols/ lanterns, twinkling bright colored lights everywhere, setting up a nativity scene/belen... simbang gabi or misa de gallo, noche buena... bibingka, puto bumbong, queso de bola, hamon, etc... one way or another each of these activities makes us feel the spirit of christmas...hope, joy, peace and love... it is Jesus' birthday... born anew in each of our hearts... even if the manger is empty, may your hearts not be! a blessed season to all! :)
