THEME: Other
face of Christmas
We know
that Christmas is the celebration of Jesus’ birth according to the teaching of
the Catholic and Christian Churches.
We know
also according to the traditions, Christmas is a very important family
celebration with exquisite food and exchange of gifts.
But is this
only Christmas?
The Church
says that Jesus is the personification of God in the world where we are living.
We will not
discuss if this statement is true or false. The important point is that Jesus
was a new kind of leader, somebody who showed to the world that the every human
being has the right to live in dignity and with the respect of others.
And
Christmas as the celebration of Jesus’ birth is the welcome to a world with
social justice, a world where rich and poor people, the capital and the
workers, everybody has to try to live in harmony and mutual cooperation with
the others: less misery, more happiness.
All the
best today and forever!
Merry
Christmas!
