The first lesson I learned during my Christmas break was how important as it is to reunite with a family member even if far away. I called up my brothers and other family members in the Philippines and greeted them a Merry Christmas. I also called up my dad and my grandmother (mom’s side) in Saipan and greeting them, too. Me, my mom, and my sister went shopping and bought gifts to send to my family members who lives away. The gifts were just some toys, a couple of clothes and shoes were all placed in a big package. I found out that one of my god mother lives here in Guam! But sadly she is leaving to the Philippines with her whole family and not coming back. So their gift to us for Christmas since they are leaving was to throw a Christmas party and celebrate it with them. I also learned how my mom met my godmother.
My second lesson was to learn to be more in the spirit. I am never really interested in Christmas because my last four kind of well sucked and it put me in a depression every time the holidays comes around. Now I should be glad it’s the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. I should love Christmas more because it’s important to my family as it is to other people. To give is better than to receive. To be more generous by giving gifts. Recieving is not so important as to the person who wants it, but to the person who needs it.
