"The true meaning" is found in The American magazine, vol. 28 (1889):
"To give up one's very self — to think only of others — how to bring the greatest happiness to others — that is the true meaning of Christmas"
It comes in the form of a gift, a carol, a song, good tidings, reunions, prayer, cheerful smiles, an enchanting trip, an adventure, dreams come true, renewed friendships, peace, a bonus, etc.

Celebrating in the spirit of love and appreciation being on earth together. When you have that spirit of love and the appreciation of being on earth together in life? What else do we need others for? It's like we are Adam and Eve nesting in the Garden of Eden without doing the sexual act. That to me is the spirit of Christmas. Or it's only for children?

A picture of our 6 years old grand daughter, Atasha, taken last December 15, 2017. Isn't the birth of Christ the birth of divine Love being born into the flesh? And celebrating in the spirit of Love and appreciation being on earth together is then the celebration of the spirit of Christ, divine Love? Your granddaughter is so cute! And at the same time she looks very mature. I hope you and your family and friends are all well, happy and healthy.

It is a gift of Love, a celebration of our birth and birth of those that surround us. It ones ability to give up thinking of ones self- to think of others- and how to bring the gift of happiness and joy to others. It is about taking what I have and paying it forward. Feed the hungry, shelter the homeless. Spend time with those you love! It is a time for I am to be be grateful for all that I am!

And celebrating in the spirit of Love and appreciation being on earth together is then the celebration of the spirit of Christ, divine Love? Your granddaughter is so cute! And at the same time she looks very mature. I hope you and your family and friends are all well, happy and healthy. Atasha, our grand daughter, was born on November 28, 2011 by ceasarean section. At 8 days old, she was confined in the hospital for jaundice. She was treated with BiliLite. Her eyes covered and bare, I whispered to her, " My dear one, Lord Chaitanya will keep you safe. " I said that because Atasha`s full name is Atasha Ayannah which sounded this way, " Shatanyah. " We thought after that, the ordeal was through. Then a few days later before Christmas she was rushed to the hospital for severe vomiting. On Christmas Eve, she was taken to the OR for explore laparatomy. Her doctor, Dr Astrologo, operated on her for Malrotation of the Intestines. Also inside the OR, Atasha was baptized Catholic by a Nigerian priest, Fr Martin. At such a young age, Atasha experienced severe crisis in her life. She is a survivor. I think God has a beautiful plan for her, become like her grandfather, a physician.
