How time flies so fast, it's already September, and the breeze of holidays are already on the air. A lot are already looking forward for their bonuses and other incentives and talking how it'll just disappear knowing that these months will also be costly and time to pay off debts. Then soon, the traffic jams and congested malls because of people rushing to buy the stuffs they need. There's just a lot of things to take care of... complications of adulthood?
Remember those times, when we were so eager for the "ber" months to come. There were just a lot to expect, the long vacation from school, the extra cash we get from carolings, the aguinaldos (gifts) from Santa, our love ones and godparents, the goodies and festivities the season gives, and the thought, that it's the birthday of Jesus. All of these that brought delight to our young minds. There's just a lot of time to be carefree... simplicity of childhood?
Life is just a cycle, as we were child once, being adults have its responsibilities. Well, these months are how we make them to be. It's really up to us on how we think of it, what we decide to do, and how we perceive it to be. But no matter how we are planning to celebrate the coming holidays, lets always keep in mind what it's for. Yahweh bless.
---BER reminds me of those old days filled with christmas carol, puto bumbong, bibingka and tsaa. I miss those days. :(
ReplyDeleteIt means thicker clothes, colder months for me. :/
ReplyDeleteYes, the yearend holidays are fast approaching and I'm glad your post reminded me of the yearend bonuses. Now I have something to look forward.
ReplyDeleteI miss the times that I don't have any responsibilities and just look forward to the Christmas break. Funny how time flies soooo fast, its almost scary. I'm just thankful I have my entire family to spend Holidays with.
ReplyDeleteHow could I ever forget? When September comes, we begin to decorate our classrooms with Christmas decorations. It was always an exciting beginning of the Christmas season in our school. But not anymore when I moved here in Thailand.
ReplyDeleteTimes flies really fast, it seems like it was only yesterday we had a hot summer.
ReplyDeleteYou know what's so special about this BER months... the first thing I want to hear is a Christmas song. Once I heard one... I seem to be so nostalgic and reminisce those days when I was young. But now, it's my kids turn to be happy and excited on the coming season.
